It depends upon case to case basis. You can't take decision on a straight cut jacket formula. Better you please discuss with me. Apart whosoever, no one has any right to infringe one's right to privacy, and damaging reputation can bring criminal or civil defamation. This have to be decided on situation and circumstances.

Certainly it is illegal whereby a consent is required to upload any recording in social media. It is also defamatory when it has been done to damage the reputation of a company which calls for both civil and criminal liability. Proper homework is required along with a detailed discussion if you wish to.
