Considering how good face recognition is these days it would be nice to have legislation in place that you have to give explicit consent to any website in order to use your image. Govt can crawl the web and block websites from the countries ISP that don't comply. Hard to see another automated solution for this problem
Indeed, that would surely stop Nigerian thiefs from using your photos. Impervious strategy.

You can always tell them, however most are told from youth that they should always marry upwards. Your experience may vary.
The victim in Tindler Swindler was not trying to marry, upwards or otherwise. She was just... tindlering. And got this charming man with "Let's fly for a weekend in Paris on my private jet". I do not see any possibility to resist. Yes, "It's too good to be true". But the jet was real...

Whoa there buddy. Your statement is both downright offensive and untrue. 1. Great recruiters work long hours around others’ schedules 2. Recruiters deal with tons of rejection that most developers don’t have the stomach for 3. Female recruiters are often overworked, harassed, mansplained to and disrespected in our industry as they deal with fragile male egos, imposter syndrome, interview anxiety, etc To build a real…

#106My mind is blown. Even when the ruse is revealed, many victims are unwilling to let go. The truth triggers an emotional whiplash—the promise of a soulmate, a new, fulfilling life, and mutual trust is suddenly lost, leaving the intense feelings of love behind. Once found, the real man in the photos becomes a surrogate for the fantasy. “Some of them would reach out to me and [say], ‘Now that I know what the real person…

#107Upsetting that in an article all about photos being used to scam people, there's not a single sample of an offending image! I mean, I think I get why. But still, it's the first thing I want to see when I read a story like this.

Women may take interest in pictures of a well-groomed gay man. But they would absolutely NOT tolerate their partner actually spend more time fussing about his appearance than them. Instant ick. Feminine behaviour.
did you poll all women lol? how do you make such confidently foolish comments ?
