Boycott the "7-päivää" -magazine
Mr. Tomi Putaansuu, Mr. Lordi, had requested several times that magazines/newspapers would not publicize pictures of him without the mask.
It is the sign of the magazine's very low standards and the breach of privacy. My greatest hope is that through this petition we could actually make the media understand where the limits of good journalism goes although freedom of speech exists in Finland (which I mostly cherish). Still, there are limits to what can be accepted.
Respecting another human being is a basic virtue. This story, and publishing the picture, is the last straw against a magazine I've already loathed because of it's "journalistic style". Say no to this kind of newscast and way of making money.
With my petition I want to point out that there are things we cannot accept from the media.
This petition was started because I wanted to find out whether others feel the same about people's right to privacy, although they are "celebrities". I think they do!

Adressit.com administrator comment: Over 200 000 people, from the Finnish population of about 5 million, have signed the petion. Due to server limits, we have decided not to accept signatures from abroad, despite the huge solidarity shown by foreign Lordi fans.
