    I don’t understand how paparazzi are still legal after what happened to princess Diana.

      because at the time people continued to buy the magazines, read the tabloids, etc. Today people continue to visit the sites, the social media posts, watch the youtube vids, etc. If people stopped consuming celebrity gossip it would have stopped. But that didn’t happen nor will it ever happen.

      Magazine sales were higher for those with a photo of Diana on the cover, before and after her death. The supply didn’t create the demand.
