I was going to remark that people like myself that avoid (most) social media and avoid tracking via vpns and so forth are counter cultural right now. I'm still having to explain to people why I'm not on Facebook all the time.
- uoaei 4y agoI routinely get eyerolls for asking people to ask me first before putting pictures of me up on the internet.
- PartiallyTyped 4y agoI have cut contact with, and purposely avoid extended family functions for this reason alone. It is beyond me why people can't seem to respect you and your privacy.
- Loughla 4y agoI just had that conversation yesterday. The only pictures of me that exist are in relation to my current employer, and only because they post headshots of all new execs in the local paper (small towns are weird like that). Otherwise, I flat do not exist online. People are ASTOUNDED when I ask them to crop me out, or to ask my permission before posting with me in it. I'm always polite, but people act like I asked them to lick the bottom of my foot. It's very strange.
