The Patriot News
A man didn't break the state's privacy law when he used a camera phone to take a photo up a woman's skirt at a shopping centre in virginia u.s.a.
Judge Edgar B. Bayley concluded Pennsylvania's privacy statute, last revised in 1998, didn't anticipate camera phones and has no provisions barring their use for what most people would consider the indecent act of "upskirting" in public places, he said.
"Although invasion of privacy sounds like what this defendant did, he did not violate" the law, Bayley wrote in a seven-page opinion. Therefore, Bayley said, he had to acquit Robert G. Sullivan.

how could he not violate the law.
Clearly the law would have stated that any use of a camera to conduct 'lude' acts that infriges on someones privacy is illegal lol...
