You are quite right there may be mileage in such a complaint, I'm just
not clear exactly what.
Where is the loss? Deformation of character? Privacy issues in a
public place?

Ian says "A few people playing away from home and being unhappy about
being
caught isn't really a case for legal action ", but surely it is? It is
processing of personal data that causes damage to the individual or to a
third party. What if, say, a hotel distributed information about the
identities of its guests, thereby revealing infidelity and thereby
causing
damage to both the person being unfaithful and that person's spouse?
Isn't
it a similar situation?
