Why are people allowed to take a video or pictures of you without your consent? Eg. when you are walking on a street and this stranger takes a pic or films you specifically. I do not mean photographers at some event you are attending, that is alright of course.
Are they allowed to post the said footage or picture of you on the internet/mass media?
Is it a crime for someone to install spycams without you knowing it and then they post a video of you in the nude on the net, can you take legal actions against them in which you will have a high chance of winning? And what is the penalty?
Same scenario: but this time they have a footage/pic of you naked and they do not post it on the net but pass it around their friends. Can you still take actions against them?
You allow your significant other to take nude pictures/video of you and when you break up with them, they decide to post it on the internet. Can you take legal actions against them?

You sound kinda sexy. What's the name of that website you can be seen naked on?---lol
I know that any pictures or video of a person taken in a public place can be published without consent, whereas there is a reasonable assumption and knowledge that being in a public place makes such occurences legal. I'm thinking that unless photos or video were acquired without your consent at the time they are originated, then you have the right to sue--elsewise go back to my first question please.--lol

It has worsened our ability to self govern from the bottom up, because crises were a local matter for the people who lived them to deal with. When things were going wrong it usually wasn't due solely to some politician on the other side of the country, and even if it was, he had to have real personal representatives in your face enforcing it on you to make it happen. For example, ridiculous British levies during the tea party era had to be enforced by some goon representative, whereas nowadays if they want to enforce it they can use federal law and national police forces (in canada such as the RCMP) who are deemed to be only doing their job and are not subjectable to outside examination when it comes to the violation of our rights. Who can you complain to? You can't even riot anymore because you will be put down like a bunch of dogs, or simply portrayed unfairly on the national news with enough morons watching to believe opinion #1 and refuse to check it out for themselves, even tho unlimited resources are becoming available... people are sheep
