'Predatory' insurer used photo of young cancer patient in advertising without permission


By Amy Ridout ofPhoto: Stuff / SuppliedAn insurance company that used an image of a boy with cancer without permission has been called "predatory" by his mother. "I felt so yuck ... thinking about how someone used my son's cancer story to try and make a profit," she said. Munro, whose job title is risk services director, said the image was used to "underscore vulnerabilities" within the health system. But my expectation was not that it would be used by others for their own commercial gain without our permission," Smithson said. "However, if these pictures were Are Media property and used without permission in advertising, we would get our lawyers onto it."
