I have never been into photo taking. I would only share photos of nature or places but not of a personal nature.

If i share photos I make them private so only certain people see them, although I am not sure even that is safe. So many people stealing other's photos and claiming to be them. Nothing is ever safe.

@amadeo People share too many personal details online, it's dangerous.

I hope all goes well with the doctor appointment. I share photos of my family on FB because my family appreciates seeing them. I think people like to see what we look like here. I know I like seeing the person the name goes with.

Many do it. I had an inconvenience a couple of years ago when someone opened a fb account with my pictures, which he removed from my friend's profile.

I suppose it's partly because what else is the point to take photos if you aren't going to show them to anyone? I don't care if they go viral or not, and I suppose at the end of the day people nowadays can find out whatever they want about me. There is very little we can hide these days anymore. So...out there they go. The photos. People can do with them what they want I suppose.
