Jennifer Lopez is the latest celebrity to get sued by the paparazzi for copyright infringement. J.Lo posted a photo of herself on social media but allegedly did not have the legal permission to do so, despite it being a photo of her. Confused yet?
But she's not alone. In recent years, a number of celebrities have been sued over the same allegations. It may sound bizarre that the paparazzi, who are constantly on top of celebs, are the ones to sue for using their pictures. But social media has added an extra layer of complexity to copyright law, so it's still early days to understand what will happen next.
Various celebrities have been affected by this wave of "copyright trolling," including Gigi Hadid, Ariana Grande, and Khloé Kardashian, and they have taken to social media to express their indignation.
