Private pictures and pornographic websites

By Sandeep Datta

While spending a good time with our loved ones or better half, most of us go so lost that we ignore some of the basic precautions, which may make us fall victim to any notorious intention in future. Getting clicked by camera in carefree postures is one such blunder.

A lot of married couples or lovebirds usually click each other for the sake of storing an unforgettable loving moment. But not many of them know how their private photographs start circulating on various pornographic websites.

Living in the Internet-age, none of us can afford to turn ignorant to dangerous of misue of photos even if it puts at state passionate moments or a romantic mood. Otherwise, the results could be fatal or cause lifetime personal embarrassment before entire family including children.

Today, there are many Internet websites carrying lakhs of family pictures and MMS of private moments, most probably, stolen or copy-pasted from personal computers of anyone of us. Don’t get shocked if you find anyone of your family members’ photo posted.

We need to remember, the computers are not the safest place. Somebody could be stealing everything out of it without our knowledge.

One of the risk zones is keeping such pictures in our personal computers instead of private CDs. The minute our computers go for mending, we are at the mercy of local engineers who may copy our titillating pictures for fun. It is these pictures that often end up appearing on porn websites. But most of the time we tend to avoid using brains.

MMS scandals, objectionable pictures, stalkers and blackmailers are well known facts of today’s love life. They can happen to anyone and anywhere. But like a stitch in time saves nine proverbs by being careful on right time we can save ourselves from personal ignominy for lifetime.

Despite being reported in various dailies or electronic media, not many of us are realizing the gravity of the problem. It is only these carefree individuals whose intimate pictures as love birds or honeymooners reach the adult websites. But do we still play safe?

We need to safeguard ourselves from becoming somebody's mediocre fun? We cannot commit a hara-kiri just when our loved ones’ life is at stake. We can circulate such trends and their implications by word of mouth or other communications.

We should be able to differentiate individuals showing respect to our feelings or simply playing with them for time pass.

Hundreds of MMS or photographs available on various websites these days do state a lot about the mindset of several notorious or revengeful minds. Such pictures, either clicked by questioning one’s integrity in lover or other tricks, only show the dangers of ‘blind’ love.

Once trapped, there is hardly any choice except approaching police for damage control. But why not behave a little intelligently by not getting into such traps at the first place?

The “who cares” attitude may look a stylish phrase, but it's dangers are seriously suicidal in the computer and cell-phone-age.
