My feeling is, once you step out of your clothes and step into a crowded shopping area, you're about as public domain as you can get. But if you need a do-gooder angle I'm willing to put forward that the exposure (no pun intended) that Brother Power has gotten can only help highlight the polarized aspects of mental disorders and how they're taken care of in China. Really though, it's just a naked dude attacking a taxi.

Sad to find out he was more of a loon than anything else. It's a great story, really funny, legendary photos, but (and I hate to be that guy) isn't a bit exploitive of people with mental problems to be furthering along this post? I expect this sort of thing out of ChinaSmack, but in my opinion this story definitely falls under the "nonsense" category.
