Exactly. I would just add that many people are more concerned about the dissemination of candid images of themselves when they are lounging, looking silly, or having a bad hair day. Such images should correspondingly be monitored even more closely than images of people preening for the camera (again, regardless of what clothing is being worn). I'm getting tired of pictures of casual nosepickers with no model release being used to illustrate articles about nosepicking. Use a real finger model, for goodness's sake'!
