A Fox 29 Talent found out that her photos were used in questionable pop-up ads without her knowledge.

When we first broke the news last September that Fox 29 anchor Karen Hepp had sued Facebook, Reddit and other Internet companies for $10 million after a photo of her was used on multiple websites and platforms without her permission, there were, essentially, two schools of thought.

On the one hand, you had the people championing her for taking on these industry giants in an era when we are (or at least when we should be) more concerned about digital privacy than ever. “Good for her,” wrote one reader. “This kind of bullshit needs to stop.”

On the other hand, you had the people who said that the case would go nowhere. “She has no chance,” opined one such reader.

Management and some of the Fox 29 staff warn her about the questionable ads using her picture.
