To avoid this your account must be deleted before Jan 16th Heads up hipsters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmrmnhrm Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 Since Instagram is owned by Facebook, and Facebook is pretty fail itself when it comes to privacy, I'm pre-emptively deleting just about every photo I've ever stuck on there. No sense even leaving the possibility out there anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oh8sti Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 Why does this really matter? I'm not taking pictures of my junk or anything. so basically Instagram will be selling pictures of dogs and food. It's social media people. There is nothing private about social media. It was invented to be shared. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbracing81 Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 I don't use it, however, my childrens mother does. I am overly cautious about pictures of my kids. I don't post them places and I don't want to see pics of them used without consent. That is my only problem with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbracing81 Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 Wrong. You own the copyright to any original work done by you, including photography. There will most likely be some sort of mandatory update of which will have a box that you have to check stating you give permission for them to share. If you don't check the box they will most likely delete your account. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramsey Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 Wrong. You own the copyright to any original work done by you, including photography. Will it be considered original if their app modifies the photo in any way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oh8sti Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 Wrong. You own the copyright to any original work done by you, including photography. Based on a filter/editor they provide? It may be the picture that I took, but they provide the way to edit it and post it on a social media site. I'm sorry, I'm just not worried about this. They can have all the pictures of my dog for all I care. I didn't start the account to make money off my photos. There may be a problem if your a pro photographer and they sell your photos to a magazine, sure. But to 99.99999999% of us, it doesn't make a difference and shouldn't.

Ill deal with that issue if it ever comes up. I guarantee ill get money out of it. But I have a better chance at winning the powerball than some massive company making tons of money off the pictures of my bulldog. I understand what your saying though. Funny story about stealing pictures. I just found out my sister in law is the Erghmergerd girl. The picture was posted online somehow and went viral, she hasn't collected a penny because she doesn't care and doesn't want to be known as that girl haha.

oh8sti Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 Bullshit. I didn't ask you to believe me lol just stating facts as I know them. I've seen her and I've seen the original picture. It was taken in a friends basement in Portland Oregon where they are from. Like I said she was about 13 at the time. Goosebumps was her favorite books and her friends all went out to get them at a store, dressing up for fun as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
