Yeah you are so right.

Meg

It’s very reasonable, in my opinion.

I’m lucky in that the only person in my immediate family who uses FaceBook is my middle sister, and she agreed not to take any pics of me when she had her party last year. And according to the other relatives, she didn’t. My best friends don’t use Facebook, so at least with them, too, it hasn’t been a problem.

I stopped socializing with some work acquaintances who weren’t willing to honor my request. It’s amazing how many people don’t realize how much is revealed with candid photographs, and how much privacy can be compromised.

It is my rule too and I’ve had family members respond poorly to it as well. Or act like I am the weird one.

There are plenty of good reasons to not share too much about yourself online. Or want it shared by others.

i totally agree with you, your request is reasonable
FreddieUK · 70-79, M
All my friends and family know that I don’t want my photo on any social media. Stick to your own beliefs.

I can never understand what’s the need to upload family pics on social media?
Bleak · 36-40, F
@Ferise1 to connect virtually?? Still not a good idea..
Ferise1 · 46-50, M
@Bleak everybody does it
Bleak · 36-40, F
@Ferise1 Maybe I am an old school.

I think a very reasonable request. They are being very un-reasonable to imagine they can publish photographs of you without your permission, nor apparently any just reason.

I've banned my family from putting me on social media. I don't have facebook for a reason. They're being selfish.
It's a very reasonable request that they should respect.
Heretochat · 46-50, M
I don't want to publish public picture of me on social media
xbandoleerx · 56-60, M
Absolutely! Your life, your pictures, your activities. No one has any business to share it without your consent.

@jshm2 useful to know.

I'm the same way. I don't want people up in my business.
Ask your family to unfriend that guy, that is the first thing you should do. Make sure they do it.

Why not ask them to kindly block your ex so he stops stalking you through them?

@BnBSpringer09 🤔perfectly entitled people should respect your wish for anonimity
meJess · F
Not just perfectly reasonable but legally enforceable for photos.
Ferise1 · 46-50, M
Paranoid much?
BnBSpringer09 · 26-30, F
@Ferise1 No, I just value my privacy and have no desire to offer free information about myself to nosy people, or to people who are not still in my life for a reason...
meJess · F
@Ferise1 interesting viewpoint, any privacy wish is paranoia. Which social media platform do you work for? 😊
