Perhaps one of the most HN replies I've ever seen. Only on HN would a photo of you be something that contains barely any information but revealing how many devices you own and how long you've had them is leaking your very soul.
I'll tell you that a photo of my son flailing out of a blanket is a deeply personal memory of a hilarious and touching moment.

No, they show a moment.
If you were right, people would care about all photos being shared or none. But that's not what happens - people care about some far more than others.
