I agree. If a man was standing outside my house taking pictures of me in the safety of my own home, I would be trying to get a restraining order too. Yes, celebrities are people that sell themselves as a product and us everyday people quite like to know things about certain famous people because we find them interesting for whatever reason - but that doesn't give people the right to try and gain access to their homes, take pictures up their skirts, follow them when they go out for dinner, wait for them outside night clubs, set up sting operations to try and incriminate them (e.g. Tulisa)... it's just nasty. I remember watching a documentary about Girls Aloud and there was a paparazzi creeping about their private villa in some foreign country taking pictures of them lying beside the pool - if they were on a public beach then fair enough, but they were at a private villa in a foreign country! Totally unacceptable. The end result is that people look at pictures of them and think "what a bunch of attention seekers, they wanted the paparazzi to photograph them like that" - totally messed up.
