    You’re not wrong.

    But I also don’t think it’s a big delta in risk chance in a lot of cases, meanwhile in some parts of the world (looking at you East Asia) spy cameras are a huge problem.

    There are, I imagine millions of nude photos taken that never leak.

    I think a reason many feminists feel strongly on the issue is that it really throws society’s whore-virgin paradigm into relief, where women with sexuality are pushed to take the blame for their actions without much (any) consideration for them as people. Which is the reason “just don’t take them” gets the hostile reaction it does, and is a ridiculed response.

      It feels like a kneejerk reaction to just a truthful statement. You can’t control what others do with your photos if you send them and with how device and account security is, you are taking a known risk by taking them. I’m sure some assign blame in the same breath but I don’t think in itself it assigns any blame.

        It may be, but even knowing all that it is hardly helpful advice, and at least out of context and not knowing the people talking doesn’t seem to contain empathy or sympathy.
        And is devoid of criticism of the actual leaker of the photos.

          I think it’s just trying to point out the risk so people at least make an informed decision on what to do.
