Study: Vast Majority Of Homemade Porn, Private Photos End Up Online
WASHINGTON (CBS DC) – The vast majority of homemade pornography and private images on personal computers ends up on public websites called “parasites.”
Eighty-eight percent of homemade pornography, including videos and still images, finds its way onto porn sites, often without the owners’ knowledge, a new study from Britain’s Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) has found.
The study analyzed more than 12,000 sexually explicit images uploaded by young people and found that the great majority of images had been stolen and published to what the organization calls, “parasite” websites.
These “parasites,” which are exclusively designed for hosting sexual images featuring young subjects, allegedly obtain their material from anywhere they can get it: lost or stolen cellphones, hacked private accounts on Photobucket, Flickr, or Facebook, or from chat sites and Tumblr, a blogging platform notorious for the amount of explicit self-published content by high school and college-age students.
“We need young people to realize that once an image or a video has gone online, they may never be able to remove it entirely,” Susie Hargreaves, CEO of the Internet Watch Foundation, told the Guardian newspaper in London. “Once an image has been copied on to a parasite website, it will no longer suffice to simply remove the image from the online account.”

2. I bet they didn’t to beg for volunteers to do this research…..

Yeah, but 80% of homemade pornography is made by out-of-work actors and actresses in hollyweird.

My favorite Larry the Cable Guy Routine is the one where he says he saw his mom and dad naked making love last night. And then proclaims last time I ever visit that porn site again.

@sarcastaballs: yes to the first question, no to the second. Unless you want to send me on an all expense paid vacation to Aspen, then yes to the second question.

All right guys. This is a talk that I am going to have with my 16 year old daughter again. She has lost one phone, and she needs to know about what can happen if she or her “friends take pictures”. The intertubes are forever.

If you are using Photo software it is best to do manual updates and never store your work online. PhotoShop offers online storage space and they can kiss my ass too. I turn off my internet connection any time I use PhotoShop because it is constantly trying to connect to the internet.
