IS flickr UNSAFE????
He could mean a variety of things by this. He could be referring to the safety of the poster. It's always possible to give out too much information through pictures that you don't realize you're giving. Perhaps you map a photo called "my house," thus telling everyone where you live.





Or, he could have been referring to the "safety" of your photos. It's always possible for someone to "steal" your photos when you put them online.





There are a variety of way to protect yourself however, by making some or all of your photos private and viewable by friends and family only.
