I feel like ones nudity is something that should stay in analog form, where you have almost complete and absolute control over the distribution of it. If people want to make digital copies of their analog form that's their right to do, but they need to realize that no system is nor ever will be secure enough to prevent their inevitable release and distribution.

This is something that young people especially don't take into account; the potential and probable long term ramifications and embarrassment. Providing such a facility is merely inviting such negative effects.



I see where you're coming from, but I don't agree. It should be possible for people to share stuff (nudity or anything else, really) with the people they want, without worrying that $incompentCompany will leak it for all to see.

That, and a bit of embarrassment isn't really all that bad. The problem is that the leaked stuff keeps on circulating :-(

I have a pet theory that seeing more "real" people in the nude is good for your body image. There's a lot less nudity than there was 30 years ago (from movies to locker rooms and everything in between), there's a lot more shame, and everyone is wistfully staring at Instagram garbage.
