Sharing online: a beginner's guide
Sharing photos or video with strangers, anonymous or not. It’s the far end of the photo ladder, and the hardest to take back.
In the quiz
- Posting anonymous photos online
- An anonymous sex tape online
- Posting with your faces showing
- Selling your content
How to start
- Start with faceless photos on an amateur site, where you control the account.
- Agree exactly what gets shown and where.
- Read the site’s identity verification and consent rules.
How to keep it safe
- Anything online can be saved and spread forever.
- Hide tattoos and backgrounds and strip location data from files.
- Selling content means taxes, and some employers care. Think it through.
What you need
- Starter: a photo app that strips metadata.
Ideas to try
- A shared account you both control.
- One post, then decide together how it felt.
Is your partner into it too?
Take the quiz on your own phones. You'll only see sharing online in your results if you both said some kind of yes.
