A New Jersey mother has filed a lawsuit after her breast-feeding video was turned into porn and posted all over the Internet.

MaryAnn Sahoury agreed in January 2010 to demonstrate nursing techniques for an instructional video to help other moms, reports CBS.

The video was posted to Parents TV's YouTube channel, where someone ripped it and edited in sexual acts performed by a woman who looks like Sahoury, according to the report. She was later horrified to find it on dozens of porn websites, with both her name and her baby daughter's name in it.

Sahoury is suing Meredith Corp., the parent company of Parents TV, for breach of contract. Meredith said in a statement it is investigating the ordeal.

"We took immediate action, hiring leading law firms and online specialists to file take-down demands, clear online caches and create positive references," the statement said. "We took these actions even though Ms. Sahoury signed a release authorizing use of the video across all media platforms, and holding Meredith harmless for any potential misuse of the video by a third party."
