No, that one will have my full consent.
That’s what they said
I am an idiot.
Haha, it happens to everyone from time to time
Don’t store your personal stuff online. If you want to share stuff, send it directly and encrypt it.
To a lot of people that’s too much effort for “no reason”.
People care, but not enough to put any effort in whatsoever.
Idk this kind of feels like victim blaming. Why should you expect your photos to be used in a way that is so devoid of the original purpose you shared them for? It’s like telling people to not go out of the house with money on them, you don’t expect to be robbed, so why should you have your entire way of living affected by it instead of punishing robbers when that does happen, or in this case companies that abuse good will.
It’s a violation of trust for sure, but users made the decision to post something publicly accessible and actually requested distribution. The lower tech version is putting your phone number on a flier and receiving a prank call. Ultimately it’s a consequence of releasing that data to the public, and giving rights to said platform by allowing them to distribute it.
But I don’t think companies are transparent enough with how they use things and usually ask for very broad licensing and usage rights for what you upload. Sure us tech literate people should and usually are scrutinizing that stuff, but what about the family aunt who just wants to share photos of their nephew with their close ones? On Facebook for example it even tells you you are only sharing posts with “Friends” or “Everyone” (or custom I guess) which might make those people think “oh just my friends see this, not the platform that I’m using”
I would also apply it on reverse, if you’re a company or artist who created content and put it online, why would you not expect that somebody will download it without paying you? If they can, it should be totally fine.
Let’s compare an apple to a car to a software…an apple is physical, if you take it without pay, the company has one less apple. Same with a car. With software that’s not the case. You can’t touch it and there is an infinite number of copies to be had.
The Internet is similar to a street except for the fact that thief’s can walk on it without having anyone know or care about what they are doing. So if you leave a software or artware on the street, there’s a good chance that it will get stolen. Same with the interwebs.
Also don’t go outside or let the Google car drive by your house or have email or throw documents in the trash
Just don’t give companies that don’t respect your privacy access to your private life. Keep your online life completely separate from your real life. It’s not that difficult.
When you post something online it’s almost as it’s become a public thing like newspaper thrown in the street. Take care of your online privacy! 🏴
Its all of us whoever had an online presence I’d bet. The depth of what has been done will not come to light for a while.
The way I see it, if they’re too young to have scocial media, they’re too young to be on scocial media.
It’s real odd when you consider how society is now okay with parents posting pictures of our children openly for the world to see. Yet when the kids start sharing pictures of them selves to friends it’s super dangerous for them.
The sad part is now private photos are at risk with all the cloud minning and “AI” crap. The idea that no matter how much I lock down my privacy, simply sending a picture of my kid to their grandma, who will save it to her auto-cloud phone gallary, is still going to feed that picture to the collective is sickening.
The only way to win is not to play
If you put your shit out there, someone is going to use it. Yeah, that’s not cool, I agree. But what did you think would happen?
It was the parents who did it not the kids
right, what did they think would happen?
Whats your point?
What’s your point?
My point is that it seems like youre disregarding how this affects the kids by saying “well the parents shouldve known better” or you think the kids deserved since they shiuldve known better and I thought I ask what your point was before making any conclusions

I doubt there was much thinking involved.
Lol the idea that you need consent to look at someone’s publicly posted pictures is laughably wrong.
Another rubbish hit piece on open source.
