I don't believe the photographer's case is seeking that, and I believe only Kat Von D is named in the lawsuit. A separate suit would have to be filed against the person carrying around their unlicensed IP.

They could black it out, or put an alternative image over it. This is common practice when someone has a tattoo they don't want, or can't keep.

But then the state is telling someone what to do with their body.

I don't think that's a problem for 95% of people. Pretty much every state on the planet tells people what to do with their bodies all the time. If you eat/smoke/whatever certain plants that are found in nature, they can lock you in a cage and steal your livelihood. I think it's heinous and wrong, but it is the current status (even though it ought not to be).
