    Default Facebook trade in female images

    So what do our Austech members think about this.....


    Images of scantily clad women are being widely circulated without their knowledge through a private "men's only" Facebook group, reigniting the debate for stricter privacy laws for social media in Australia.



    Since its inception two weeks ago, "The Brocial Network" has attracted more than 8000 members, including at least four players from a Melbourne-based AFL club.

    The site features hundreds of images of women in bikinis and lingerie, obtained from the personal Facebook photo albums of the members' female friends.

    There was a jounalist detained in Qld the other day for recieving a photo. He didn't actually try to obtain it. The law is so far behing all this stuff that it will probably never catch up.

    I think the players were from North, not that it matters.

    Cheers

    and the problem is ........?
    if you stoopid enough to post them, got to expect they might get out there
    we all know there isn't anything such thing as privacy on the interwebs

    who knows some of the girls will probably get modelling contracts and/or media opportunites thats how it seems to work these days !!!!!!

    I can see alot of guys being befriended.

    It just goes to show, if you don't want people to see your photos, don't upload them to any site.

    One major problem is people don't/can't delete alot of their data and don't understand that alot of it is visible.

    I'm in the secondhand business and the amount of photos, I have to delete of computers/cameras and mobile phones is mindboggling. I need to go through the files to make sure the new owner doesn't get a rude suprise.

    also they is a few called facebookcollege babes or equivalent (might be different to what the link is on about)

    The problem isnt always pictures that you upload but what others do. Anyone can upload a photo of you that they have taken or grabbed from your shared pic's. A friend had an ex boyfriend post some private photo's, open for everyone to see and tagged alot of her friends in the pic just to be a jerk.

    I dont see this as being much different than the "post your GF" threads and crap like that on other forums, but i do disslike facebook so im in for the the FB hate.

    Agreed.

    Why would you bother with facebook when you could just go straight to *tube.com

    I think this was inevitable to happen Mick....Some people despite being told of the dangers with that particular website simply have No effing idea....from what I read yesterday it appears to be a pretty simple process althoughtime consuming.

    The younger generation are definately in a midset of "it wont happen to me" or they simply dont care.
