In general, yes, you can sue in Ohio for invasion of privacy. You should ask yourself first--do I want the extra publicity a suit might bring, does the target defendant has assets that make a suit economically worthwhile, can I afford the time expenditure and expense that a suit would bring, etc. The practical question of should I sue is different from the strictly legal question of can I sue.
