Explain the invasion of privacy tort. How does it vary based on the situation?

What will be an ideal response?


Invasion of privacy is a privacy tort that consists of encroaching on the solitude, seclusion, or personal affairs of someone who has the right to expect privacy. For example, an owner of an ice skating rink who installed two-way mirrors in the women's dressing room would have committed an invasion of privacy, because the skaters should be able to expect a certain degree of privacy in a dressing room. Of course, the degree of privacy one may reasonably expect varies greatly. In another example, if one is trying on clothes in a department store fitting room where signs are posted saying that the "area is under observation to deter shoplifting," it would not be unreasonable for the store to have authorized security guards of the same sex as the dressing-room occupants observing the dressing rooms.
