The end of Snapchat?
I cannot understand people who confide their privacy to companies like Apple and Snapchat. Of course their photos will be 'leaked'. It's just a matter of time.

- tjbiddle 12y agoNot really. Most people couldn't care less about the 10 second thing. They use Snapchat just as a means of sending a quick photo. It's just more fun than texting. I know very few people who actually care about the privacy aspect of it.

- meowface 12y agoIt is technologically impossible to prevent Snapchat users from saving or copying images they receive from other Snapchat users. Replace "Snapchat" with any other app here and the same principle applies. Their proposition is not that this is impossible, but rather that it is not easy for a typical end user to see past images. This enables a form of ephemeral communication; it was never intended as a security feature, simply a communication feature.
