Sometimes people when using social networking sites think the are just sharing a photo with their friends and forget that the image is going public. Other times the person has downloaded it to keep a copy on there computer for their own personal use (which is perfectly legal), but then the photo gets mixed up amongst photos they have taken them selves and they accidently posted it online.

I do agree with your point on that prior consent should be obtained first, but I don't feel it is right to name and shame before a request has been made to the person for it to be removed.

Also, there is some script that can be integrated into websites to disable the right hand mouse click so the photo can't be copied in the first place (obviously not possible if using third party sharing sites such as Flickr).
