Thank you, that was my point. I admit that I wasn't thinking about the potential for the photos to live forever but also feel that 1) in all probability they won't live forever, at least not on the public, searchable internet given that they're illegal 2) If the article's purpose was to highlight that aspect then it did a poor job. My reaction to this article is that it comes across as a continuation of a lazy, facile media narrative about technology and culture and kids that began with Geraldo Rivera, BBSes and Dungeons and Dragons.
