I think as long as you keep track of who you're sharing with (maybe keep it to family, close friends who actually care about the children) it's really no different than emailing pics or breaking out wallet snapshots during parties. The only additional issue would be Facebook's face-tracking algorithms and things like that - a parent would have to make their own determination about that.

It's more like breaking out wallet snapshots at a party, handing them off to a middleman who scans and stores them for future analysis, then maybe shows them to your friends (with some advertisements mixed in) depending on whether or not their algorithm decides it's profitable to do so.


How about bugs around privacy features? How about somebody clicking "save as" on your pictures and doing whatever they want with it?

Personally, I use an adaptation of the "an unloaded gun doesn't exist" rule and think that once you put something on the Internet, anywhere on the Internet, it is accessible by everybody for ever.
