> FAQ > Will you store my images? > We are running this service on a small server. We literally cannot afford to store any images. If that is what you need, there are more suitable services out there. This does not answer the question - it doesn't say "No." or that images are permanently deleted from server on burn expiry, only that there are (currently) limits. So slightly worrying that there might be selective rete…

>There are similar services to this one, but they are either convoluted with ads, or require sign-up, or expect you to fill out a survey or something. So you just want to offer it free? What about ongoing responsibilities if you get DMCA and take down for copyright/child porn/fake nudes and so on
Its small and I have this vps for 2 years for basically free. On the matter of dmca: the server doesn't accept large uploads, and only accepts pictures. So what will be stolen which is soooo tiny yet so important that grants legal action on a small service? Also I don't know what people are uploading (and have no way of knowing), so my consciousness is clear. AND people don't use a random site on the internet for suc…
We never shared the link to the uploader publicly, yet within a couple of weeks the URL was out there somehow and he was getting all manners of horrific stuff uploaded to it, he had to close it down just to protect himself.
You've posted this to HN.
I wouldn't take this risk.
>No tracking >
Hire a red team expert or service to scan your site and provide you with a report. Letting others upload content to your server is a minefield. Take the advice seriously.
It's a cool project. And I urge you to keep learning and making cool things.
>No tracking >
so? google knows everything. it is needed for indexing and whatnot. I dont track you. that's my claim, not that I wont let google track you, because it will regardless.
EDIT: I see you're also handwaving very decent legal advice here. I'd highly encourage to revisit your attitudes if you plan to learn and grow.
Earlier quoted context omitted.

Be humble (even more so as a junior) and accept OP's suggestion. You literally state "no tracking" in the footer (and maybe elsewhere) which means every techie will understand that there's no tracking at all (certainly not by Google or any other external entity). Either remove the tracking or remove the notice, otherwise you're being dishonest. EDIT: I see you're also handwaving very decent legal advice here. I'd hig…
You use firefox? sponsored by google. You use chrome? boom. Android? gth.
Go to dark web you weirdo. I wont read your replies every again.
Again since you lost your glasses and cant read, "I DONT TRACK YOU." Thats what you get. Google does anyway, same as bing through ddg and brave search. You thought you were being smart didnt you? lol.
How do we know it is Golang? Is there a repository with the code available? Without it I find "in Golang" rather superfluous; it should have better been "I made a private self-destructing image hosting site".
