I would think checking would be an arduous task. The only reason I have noticed any of mine is because someone used my imgur link. like my pictures don't normally get a lot of clicks, then there are those with 50,000 or 75,000 or 100,000. I look to see where those went. So far none have really bothered me though. you could watermark, but how many do we see where they cropped above them or just airbrush them out. I suck and could remove a watermark with Gimp. Someone good with photoshop likely has no issue.
I will say sites are starting to do more, but I don't know if that is a good thing either. How many sites have started adding user verification? It doesn't seem like that big of a deal, just a face photo holding a written version of your user name. Though many verify the metadata is still intact as a means of determining the photo wasn't altered. um, that displeases me as I like to strip most of it. How many chicks do we see here using dropbox leaving the gps coordinates or brand, model, and serial number of the device still intact? Maybe I don't want to give my address to a random porn site, but if you strip metadata it will show it was altered. If I start getting snail mail viagra spam and business cards for hot college girls in my area, I will be annoyed haha.
The legal changes are interesting too. What 45 states, at least, have laws on non-consensual photo distribution, and now 16 have added laws on online impersonation. Without financial motive or as a means harassment, they are just misdemeanors, which for a clean record isn't too bad, maybe $1000 fine, but if you aren't so clean, up to 6 months in jail. However, look at how some are applying the new laws though. Like that ex cop last year. Apparently, he got the idea to join a site as a bi-chick to dirty talk with other chicks, trading nude shots with them and such. Someone sent an anonymous tip to law enforcement that they thought this chick asking for nude shots was really a dude impersonation a chick. They found him and ended up charging him with over 200 counts of misdemeanor online impersonation. They didn't only charge him for the persona he played, but for many of the people he interacted with as that persona. God damn, they aren't playing. Hopefully the dude likes pretending to be a chick in jail as much as he did online, as I don't know anyone with more than a handful of misdemeanors who didn't serve some real time. It seems many people are having the conversation and trying to find solutions.

I fairly often delete or re-write my posts, I don't like to say unkind things in my post, so in re-reading, I often change them: Of course you could say, "why then did you say them in the first place?
lol. though, one could say that is even more unkind. Ok, you say something mean, they read it, storm off, come back and it isn't mean. Well now they aren't sure if you were being a douchebag or if they are crazy. That is just mean haha.
Also, I think many people go too far with nice. Like they don't say the things that they should because they are trying to be nice. We are literally in a conversation that is demonstrating an issue of people being "nice". Plus, I have watched so many marriages burn because a spouse spent too long trying to be nice. I am guilty too. Sometimes, I will swallow things for years then snap one day. I am probably better off telling people what I really think at the time rather than swallowing it as I try to be nice because it isn't a big deal, then going off and telling them 100 things I really think, all at once, while I sound like a lunatic.
Thank you. Truth is. I know that my pictures are less likely to be stolen than say someone like you (young/skinny/sexy as fuck)
But if we pay attention to one of the reasons womens hairs stand up when they spot fakes, it's often because the picture is too.. Perfect. Or not Amateur enough. So like I've always said.. if I was going to steal a picture, it would be one of the stereotypically beautiful ones. I would not chose one like myself.. This is not to put myself down.
But we all know what Society says is beautiful. So if a woman is going to steal a picture, she will steal one that fits into that mold for optimal attention. Guys are another story.
Back when I had my threads, I always left them up though. What a bitch it was to remove them all when I closed my thread (until I discovered how to mass delete)
I understand. Personally I would pick a hot, young chick. I'd make her single, rich, and child free. And this is why we would not make good catfishers. Not sure I could even impersonate a young chick well anyway. My old and jaded self would likely seep through.
