![]() Once it brings up the pic in large format you need to scroll down the page a bit until you see ‘PIC411’ in the right hand column. If you want to make any of them private you need to click on the individual picture. ![]() The second (Friends Only) only allows your FL friends to see the picture in question.ĭon’t know how to adjust picture (or writing) privacy?! Follow these steps!Ĭlick on your profile picture to bring up the gallery view of all of your pictures. The first (FetLifers) lets anyone on FetLife see your content. More distinguishable features like your face, tattoos, and birthmarks in the shape of a rhinoceros are much harder to deny. People could recognize you by the size of your schlong, but you can probably just get away with playing dumb on that one. Think things through, because once it’s uploaded, you never know who might steal it and post it elsewhere (or just save it on their PC and fap to it while sitting on the crapper later).ĭo you really want to take the risk your kids might find it one day while searching Google cybernetically while driving in their automated space car?! Guard your face pic/tattoos/distinguishing marks Which brings me to my next point… Once you put it on the net, it will never be private again. There really is no guarantee of privacy on FetLife, or anywhere else online (or with any connected technology, as the recent phone cell phone hacking case known as ‘The Fappening’ proved) (aka ) work hard to get those sites taken down as soon as they find out about them, but its still something you should be aware of.ĭespite users having to create a profile to view posts on FetLife…don’t be fooled. Those sites, if the person wishes, are Google searchable to a degree. Some less than scrupulous people have also figured out how to get around the create sites that mirror FetLife. Nevertheless, even if you succeed in having it taken down, it is only a matter of time before it gets uploaded again, or elsewhere. You can send a DMCA (Digital Millenium Copyright Act) take-down request, but those are really only effective in the US (where the Act is a legal bill). I’ve alerted quite a few FL users to this problem in the past, and some are shocked, while others just seem to accept it as something to expect if you post something online. Some of those sites seek to connect pictures with personal details. There are entire sites set up to posting content from sites like FetLife, not to mention blogs that troll the site and post ‘funny’ or ‘freakish’ content. Your father, your ex, your boss, reporters, and even your children. The bad newsĪnyone can create an account. That means that in order to view profiles and pictures, you need to have created an account. And now back to the post at hand… The good newsĪlso, you see how it says your address bar? That means ‘Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure’ and basically means that the site constantly verifies that you’re logged into FetLife as you navigate and apparently the data is encrypted so others (perhaps on your network) can’t see what you’re up to. I need only point to ’50 Shades of Horrible Writing’ as an example of how accepted this content CAN be, and how many people out there find it appealing. I believe that as people become more open about what they enjoy, we’ll receive more acceptance. It has no effect on my life outside of the bedroom (or at least outside of my D/s relationship)…so I don’t feel a need to defend my actions to anyone. I choose not to go to great lengths to hide that I’m kinky. What I do is LEGAL (though it may not be in your area), CONSENSUAL, and sexy as faaaack. ![]() I think that hiding what we do can unintentionally make it look as though we’re ashamed. ![]() Let me preface this by saying that I encourage people to be ‘out’ if they can be. Here are a few points to ponder, and ways to keep things more private. If you’re not ‘out’ about being kinky to your friends, you might want to consider taking a few steps to protect your privacy on FetLife.
