A few weeks ago two naked photos of Scarlett Johansson appeared online.

They were intended for the eyes of her former husband only, but were seen by millions after her cell phone was hacked.

Ever since the photos leaked Johansson’s lawyers have been very busy pulling them offline, and more.

A take down notice sent to Google (just published) reveals that the actress even went through the trouble to officially register the copyrights.

“Photos are registered with the US Copyright office, but not authorized for publication,” law firm Lavely & Singer writes on behalf of Johansson.

They describe the work as follows:

“Stolen hacked copies of highly personal and private photographs which capture our client self-posing in her own home in a state of undress and/or topless “

Registering the copyrights may have been done to make it possible to claim punitive damages in eventual lawsuits.

Although Johansson does indeed prefer to keep the photos offline, she’s happy with the (soon to be copyrighted) artwork she produced.

“I know my best angles,” she told Vanity Fair, adding that there’s nothing wrong with taking naked pictures.

“It’s not like I was shooting a porno. Although there’s nothing wrong with that either.”
