> In reality we already practice social media consent; it is not unusual to ask a friend if they’re alright with having a picture posted Is this common practice? The author keeps insisting it is. I don’t think it is, I think the author is just a member of a particularly inclined friend group. It would be a nice consideration but I can honestly say I have never asked nor been asked. I’ve certainly asked after the fact to have particularly unflattering pictures I’ve been tagged in taken down and friends have always apologetically complied. I don’t generally post many pictures of people outside my direct family, and can only think of one occasion where my sister had me take a photo down.
