It's inevitable, and probably a bit shortsighted if one is taken by surprise by it, but it's still worth pointing out that it's pretty reprehensible behavior.

Agreed. I would never claim that these people are within their rights to demand total access to Tiger's life. Or that they're being reasonable or rational in doing so.

In my view neither ad
should result in losing the claim to privacy. But then, I'm not a celebrity whack-a-doodle. But I think a golfer selling golf equipment to golfers is different than a golfer selling his celebrity to everyone. The latter, imo, is going to lead to a much more extensive invasion of privacy -- in good times and bad. Not that I'm saying it's right, or that Tiger is wrong for going for every advertising dollar he can get, mind you.
On a personal level, I feel for Tiger and his family. Even an (alleged) cheating dog doesn't deserve to have his awkward attempt-at-a-cover-up-voicemail played to the world. Truly cringe-worthy stuff.
