When YaVaughnie Wilkins's relationship with Oracle software president Charles Phillips ended, Wilkins sought out revenge on her married ex-lover – by paying for a billboard on Times Square that featured a large photograph of Wilkins and Phillips under the worlds "Charles and YaVaughnie." The billboard also had a link to a webpage filled with photos of the couple, along with love notes from Phillips to Wilkins. Wilkins maintained an eight year relationship with Phillips while he was married, though he filed for divorce from his wife in 2008. Wilkins also had similar billboards in Atlanta and San Francisco. The Times Square billboard was taken down one day after it was put up.
Today we asked our panel if they think billboards that display personal information without the permission of all involved parties should be allowed, or if they feel that Wilkins had a right to make her feelings public. After reading their thoughts, join the conversation by leaving a comment.
