Well said, Facebook.
People are uploading thing to the internet for the sole purpose of having as many people as possible see it. That’s the entire goal of the exercise.
It’s baffling that those same people would then turn around and behave as though they are surprised that people can see those things.
- rusk 7y agoYes just like if a lady wears a sexy dress that makes it okay to cat call her on the street. She’s not wearing the sexy dress for you ...
- sgt101 7y agoI upload photos to S3 as a backup, only I have ever seen them (I think). Is it ok for Amazon to sell or use them? How about using them to blackmail me ? Would that be ok?
- jasonkester 7y agoNo. Just the things I said in my comment. So if instead of uploading that photo to S3 and marking it private, you uploaded it to Facebook and clicked the "Show This Photo To Everybody In The World" button, it would be OK for Facebook to show it to everybody in the world. It would be impossible to blackmail you with it, given that there is nobody left without the ability to see it, at your request. I personally have lots of photos up on Facebook that anybody in the world can look at if they choose. I also have lots of photos that nobody but me and my family can look at unless I show them personally. I accomplished this by not uploading photos from that second group to Facebook.
- sgt101 7y agoBut if Facebook (as they do) offer you a service that allowed you to share the photos with a selected set of individuals would you not have the reasonable expectation that Facebook would not share them further? What I'm parsing out of your comments is that no matter what Facebook says we should expect it to act without regards to privacy?
- jasonkester 7y agoSo to paraphrase what you're saying, in both your comments: "But if [something other than what I said], then [something different would happen]." Yes. I agree with your conclusions about the things I didn't say. But I guess I'll have to ask that you stop posting them as though they were responses to (or related in some way to) things I did say.
