No Instagram, no privacy — Blog

The author has no Instagram himself, but through his friends who photograph him at events, others still know (and more importantly judge) about his activities.

Such leakage through other parties might be the greatest risk to privacy.

  • Having your photo taken in any public place can lead to this. They know what will happen with photos taken and the alternative to this is excluding yourself from activities with friends and that is a choice the author can make.

    • or wear a face mask at all times lmao. Maybe the simplest solution is to ask them: please do not take photos while I am in the picture.

      • I've never seen people who would refuse to listen when I ask to keep me out of the picture. Even in the gym, where people around me are doing it the most, the silent consensus seems to be to not get other people in frame if possible.
