They've posted the images in public. It's not reasonable to expect privacy.
Uploading unseen photos may not necessarily be such a great idea.
Please explain why you seem to think that this is less private than not showing images.
This guy is posting someone else's private photos on the internet, without the person's knowledge or consent. That's not cool.
What stops me from providing anyones photo?
The problem is you're violating other people's privacy, then uploading it.
We’re discussing non-consensual images.
I think you're misunderstanding this turn of events, now is the best time to upload your pictures, because all pictures (and videos) are now considered suspect by default.And it's not really avoidable I think; your face has been leaked to many places already; you'd have to be quite optimistic to think otherwise.
No it wouldn’t. The imperative would be to only upload pictures of yourself/never upload pictures of other people (without express consent)
Don't post your photos in public accounts, that's about it.
