Is it dangerous to put your picture online?

Question

What dangerous could that provoke?

Answer 1

yea... r u an idiot??

Answer 2

There is always a risk with posting ANYTHING online, but of course your risks increase depending on the material and what type of site you are posting these photos on. What kind of pictures are you talking about?

Answer 3

well you  must realize that there are creeps online. Just by seeing your picture, a person can tell almost everything about you. Young girls should definetly not. Putting your picture online is your choice. Good can result and so  can bad. As long as it is not a big picture or a picture of you and your firned (unless your freind has permission.) But you must think "is this something that my mom would let me do?" If it is't , theres your answer. Think if you went up to your mom and asked her "Mom, can I post my picture on the internet where the world can see me and track me down?" What do you think she would say?

Glad to help

Young people especially girls should not put their pictures on a computer anywhere.  It is asking for trouble.

No, it's not dangerous to put your picture online. But it definately increases the ability for someone to track you or find you.

Answer 12

my cat says..no

Answer 13

I think it's dangerous if you're giving it to someone you don't know like on online chatrooms and instant messengers.

But myspace, facebook and other profile pages i think is fine, if you got any abuse from people on profile pages at least you can report them and block them. I suppose also you can set pictures to private on some profile providers.

But just never send pictures online to someone you don't know

Answer 14

yes  sumtimes it dependes

Answer 15

not really,Just don't put personal information.

It's not like a person's gonna see you online and say " OH THERE'S SO AND SO, LET'S GO KILL THEM"

lol...so it doesn't  really matter. You can if you want to! :)

Answer 16

It's a risk, but I don't know the probability of you  suffering some form of defamation, or worse. Given how many people are online, I doubt you are in much danger from having your picture online. The more important thing is where you have it, and what the context of the picture is.

Answer 17

not anymore, it was "dangerous" back when the internet was new and people didnt feel comfortable with having their pictures online, since technically "anybody" could see them. but now everybody and their pet cats have their pictures online somewhere for the most part.

Answer 18

do u watch the news and stuff?

Answer 19

c'mon look at mine, what harm can it do?

Answer 20

Putting your picture on-line is not dangerous.  Putting identifying notes or remarks, such as your name and town or the school name you go to or even a background clue such as standing in front of your car with the license plate in full view, would be dangerous because it would allow the few, but scary creeps to identify where you live or work, etc and then stalk you or whatever.

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you, but unfortunately this is a weird and scary world we live in.  If you live in the USA, you are only one of nearly 300 million people, so just posting your picture alone is not going to enable the creeps to find you.

Anyway, I hope this shed some light on the subject.

Have fun

Answer 21

if you looked like me you would. lol

Answer 22

people you know recognizing you and you becoming a laughing stock

Answer 23

It is dangerous in that someone could potentially stalk you anytime you put any of your personal information on the interent, including your picture. Also though, be careful what you disclose on sites like facebook, myspace or nexopia because the things you carelessly put up now could come back to haunt you in your future. (examples: applying for a job or running for office) Just be careful how much you disclose on the internet, because whatever you post, can't be taken back.

Answer 24

if you put too many.

Answer 25

it can be dangerous.

you just have to be careful where you put it.

you never know who will want to copy your picture and photoshop you into some porno.

hahaha but just be careful.

Answer 26

Its VERY dangerous! Do you watch the news?
