The right of publicity is a legal doctrine that gives individuals the ability to control the commercial use of their name, image, likeness, or other identifiable aspects. This right helps protect a person’s identity from unauthorized exploitation, particularly in advertising and media, which has become increasingly relevant in reality programming where real people’s lives and images are featured prominently. By enforcing this right, individuals can prevent others from profiting off their persona without consent, raising various ethical considerations and controversies around privacy, consent, and commercialization.
