'Invasive' Snapchat of teen who later killed himself was illegal, court says

California appeals court upheld ruling that the video showing a student - who later killed himself - seemingly masturbating in stall was an invasion of privacy

When a 16-year-old student at a San Diego high school uploaded a 10-second video to Snapchat of another student seemingly masturbating in a restroom stall, he thought he'd get a laugh from his peers. The video, shot on a smartphone, was posted to Snapchat stories and disappeared 24 hours later, but not before it went viral around the school.

Two weeks later the subject of the video - known in court documents only as Matthew B - killed himself, leaving a suicide note that read: "I can't handle school any more and I have no friends."
