There are many websites and software that send photos in large formats either to cloud servers or to their friends and family - all surely vacuumed up into the Database at Ft. Mead and in Utah. As Snowden has made clear and others have verified, the NSA's intentions are a COMPLETE database on everyone - with photos [so video cameras can ID everyone in real-time [and detain or arrest you for whatever they want, when they want] attached to complete information on that person and who they know and interact with. All too many, IMO, think something along the lines of 'since I don't do anything wrong, why should I care if the NSA or others have all of my information'. We, the People, are the 'enemy' to be lied to and controlled - and taken out if we cause trouble - whether that is taken out of circulation, taken out of ability to work, or (if really a stone in their 'shoe') really taken out.
Storing photos and text that you make available publicly is not as great a concern to me as storing emails, phone calls, chats, video chats, etc.,.
I am hoping that the information from Snowden via Greenwald that Greenwald announced on Stephen Colbert http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/erik...st-impact/ regarding the list of Americans being spied on will start to finally penetrate the feeble brains of people who think it's ok to collect information because they have nothing to hide. I guess they never heard of being set up, framed, misidentified, swat teams bursting into peoples homes only to realize later that they were at the wrong address, possession of property for years by the IRS by mistake or a myriad of other injustices upon people who had nothing to hide. Maybe, just maybe this might will start to sink in... but maybe not!
