I think that it should be standard practice that if a DVD was going to be produced out of those events that the people attending should have been notified. Then, they could make their decision about attending or staying out of the line of fire, as it were.

What has been done is a severe breach of privacy. The attendees at those parties did not consent to appearing in a porn video and may not appreciate being in one, even as a spectator.

What I find more astonishing is that none of this crossed the minds of the producers. Just because we work in porn doesn't necessarily mean that we want the whole world knowing what we do.

Finally, the companies sponsoring these events may have their logos appearing in the video. The free publicity is certainly nice, but it's always nice to be asked if you want it there in a DVD.

Not nice.
