Yes and no. I believe 10 years is obviously a bit much in this case, but if you tweak the variables a bit, this sort of thing can be tantamount to a sexual assault.
Imagine it's your sister or girlfriend involved, and the pictures are splashed across Facebook by an ex-boyfriend.
In this case, the victims are certainly less sympathetic, but the principle is basically the same.
It reminds me a bit of this Hunter Moore business: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4890088
