FaceCheck IDで自分の顔が出るか試してみたが表示されなかった。

インスタやTikTok、YouTubeはやってるけど全部動画しか投稿してないからかもしれない。

#facecheck

I used to run a #data #privacy workshop, and to demonstrate the impact of poor practices (both of companies and individuals) I'd pick the first (non-minor) girl that popped up when searching #Twitter for #selfie or #nofilter, then find out everything interesting that I could over the course of the following 10 minutes.

After the timer went off, I'd usually say something along the lines of,
"Now that we know [list of info] about [name], let's plan our first get-together! Should we pick them up from [work/school] or just drop by their place?"

Update: dang this post is getting too long, so I'm going to cut a bunch and just jump to the links and a couple tips.

If you're interested in this stuff (and you don't smell like a creep), feel free to ask me anything—I'm always happy to help if I can.

Now back to the post.

Here are some lovely people-finder sites you don't want to be on:

People sites like the ones in the above link are usually a pain in the butt to get yourself removed from. They'll often ask you for all your info before allowing you to remove any of it—some require you to upload a picture of your ID (fuck that).

A reasonable counter-measure against these sites is disinformation. If you show up on them, take a minute to "update their records" if you can. If you have writer's block, use a site like https://www.fakenamegenerator.com/ to make shit up.

If you find yourself on a site like #PimEyes, #TinEye, #FaceCheck, etc, ask to be removed. Also, don't use any image of yourself that isn't already public knowledge in order to see if you're on the site—you're just giving them a new reference point.

The same ideas help as counter-measures for people search sites too: disinformation and distortion.

It's also worth checking out https://support.google.com/websearch/troubleshooter/3111061?hl=en if you need to make things like #revengeporn, #doxxed records, and other sensitive information harder for people to stumble across.

In closing, I'll leave you with a quote:

"Of the [346 victim services] programs that responded, 97% indicated that victims who seek their services are being harassed, monitored, and threatened by offenders misusing technology. The majority of survey respondents were domestic violence and sexual assault programs (88%)."
