So he sent a nude selfie to his girlfriend. So what? I honestly don't see it as a big deal.

Exactly. Poor judgement perhaps in a digital age, but not a big deal.
Exactly. The days of the one off polaroid picture are over. These days
any picture you take could easily end up on the internet and be copied
a million times. Don't take any pictures you don't want on TMZ.
I was just watching a couple of attorneys talking about Barton.
In their opinion the ex-girlfriend could be subject to a misdemeanor
charge in Texas, with up to a year in jail and/or a $4k fine.
There are laws in some states about doing this if
you can prove that you had a reasonable expectation of privacy.
If it is actually illegal in Texas I think a civil suit might be more
devastating for the leaker. It would be easy to prove far more than
$4k in damages.
I really have mixed emotions on this because sending the picture was
the Acme of foolishness in the first place.
