Nahh nahh. You are absolutely right. I love it when the techno "elite" throws out their principles the moment something feels icky but has no set social norms only parallels that are to icky to think about in an objective way.

So you are absolutely correct. Hn is just reddit suddenly




Who has principles that state it’s ok to take someone else’s personal pics from social media and post them as effectively porn?


So it is ok for bloggers, journalists, fan sites, meme sites, meme factories etc. To take someone's publicly posted pic and use it for amusement or personal gain?

But it is not ok for a group of collectors to organize collections on internet out of crops of publicy posted photos, for something completely legal?


You’re setting up a straw man and then knocking it down, as such I feel no need to argue with this.
