A: While it is unfortunate, it is not illegal to take pictures of you. It is unclear what you mean by posting them on the FBI’s website and for what purpose. If your neighbor is accusing you of committing a crime, that is a different matter. Additionally, you may have recourse if this neighbor is on your property; it may be a case of trespassing. It is best to contact an attorney who can assess the specifics of your circumstances and provide you with a tailored response.
