  4. If someone is sharing an intimate image a girlfriend sent them (after a split or whatever) I’d have sympathy for that girl and the person sharing the pictures should be subject to the law. It was a breach of trust (and granted some shortsightedness on the side of the person who actually took the picture), and those pictures shouldn’t be passed on.

    My opinion differs somewhat with regards to pictures/videos produced for commercial gain. Does reddit see these two examples as the same or different?

    Scorned lover v onlyfans, is it the same or different?

  5. A vile thing to do and horrible thing to happen to someone. I do think people need to be realise and or be reminded that posting something online is as good as giving it away. Even if you’re account is private, don’t post anything you’re not okay with everyone seeing because you just can’t trust people.

  6. To think you can send a photo to someone in this day of security breaches, cloud, Siri etc and think it will safe is naive . Don’t send what you don’t want public.

  7. I have had my images in bikini “stolen” most likely from FB and used on other accounts… I have a private account but I guess I must had tagged some people in my albums and they possibly were friends with anyone or everyone who only requested and therfore those images were available for wider public view…

    I just hope nobody is using it on dating apps lol. It would be quite a situation if one of my husband’s single friend tought I’m on tinder looking for hookups …

    Some people just don’t care and think they can do whatever they want…

    I’m more careful now, but what is floating out there already is beyond my control…

  8. Another use case for tokenizing assets online. If the sites facilitating the displaying of said stolen pictures, only used blockchain verified assets (NFT), where obtaining the assets (images) would only be possible if the owner put them on sale/distributed.
    Maybe

  9. So dont upload personal or not intimate images in the first place, seriously these people are the bottom of the barrel when it comes to stupidity.
