It is what it is
PinkMeth.com, should it be illegal?
Just ran into this website, they post nude pics of girls without their permission along with some personal info like their real names, FB, email accounts and where they live. I'm thinking this should be illegal but obviously they haven't gotten shut down. What do you guys think?
I don't know if there is a previous thread on this so if there is, can someone bump it?

I've been there since I saw the link, it's legit.

Re: PinkMeth.com, should it be illegal?
I am always in favor of folks being knowledgeable about their online presence and being wise enough to never throw nude pictures out there on the internet, whether you feel it's private or not. That said, I still do not believe having their photos stolen and posted alongside personal information should be legal.
I decided to do a little bit of reading and in at least one instance (and I'm guessing tons and tons more) a woman had uploaded photos to a private album on Photobucket five years ago to send to her boyfriend (because she felt it'd be easier than emailing them). After those five years passed and she'd somehow forgotten she even uploaded them, her parents were called by a random stranger (a supposedly good samaritan), notifying them that her pictures had been uploaded and linked to her Facebook page and Google +.
I don't know a ton about computers, but it seems relatively easy for folks to bypass any sort of password situation on Photobucket. It seems to be a crappy situation all around. Yes, they should have never put photos of themselves like that online in the first place, but I don't think it means they deserve this.

how do they make sure no underage girls get posted? if they don't then that definitely seem illegal (even if they do still seems illegal) afraid to go there then have the fbi bust thru my door

Yeah, that shit should be illegal. Just imagine if it were your daughter or wife. I won't go to the site. I'll stick to porn where girls know that they are being put on the net.

I also did a google search for "shut down pinkmeth.com" and one of the first things to pop up was something from anon about how they wished to shut the place down. That's a good sign, right? I don't know internets too well but anon is a good place to have on your side, yes?

Illegal? There should more sites like this if anything.

This is terrible. Unless of course it is set up with a search function to look up girls you know from school. Does the site have that function?

Even if there are things out there equally or even more disturbing, I still get surprised whenever I stumble upon something like this. Definitely needs to get taken down. :/

No he's not. The site isn't a virus. It is a terrible site, though. Hopefully it gets taken down soon.

Isn't it basically illegal due to personality rights? Where I live it isn't allowed to spread and publish pictures of people without their consent.
