What do companies like LegacyBox do with your private 'adult' pictures and videos?
LegacyBox, Southtree, iMemories, and several others will take your old VCR video tapes, 8-track movies, printed photographs, and slides, and convert them into digital media – for a price, of course.
Suppose you send them old videotapes of you and your wife (or girlfriend) in, shall we say, ‘adult activities’. Or nude photos of you and your adult friends.
Would they keep a copy of your private adult activities? Would they report you to some authority? (who?)
Would you send your private personal files to an agency like these for digitization, or are you just asking for trouble?

I wouldn’t send them off. If you were doing something illegal, I imagine you’d be reported.Idk that for sure,though
I do think there are those who would keep a copy of your films.
When I had photography classes, there were many who developed photos of a personal nature because it was a secure way of doing that.
@elbanditoroso – I wasn’t assuming that you do.I’m sorry if it came off that way.
When I used film and took it in to be developed, I would often get comments on the photos.Sometimes, they even put it in the form of a note.
None of these pics were nudes, but the strange thing to me has always been how nude photography has a bit of a stigma.
I had a class where the final was to be a full size nude portrait of yourself in any medium.They were all put on display at the end of the class.Lol! Talk about getting to know others!
I have also had those kind of self portraits ( no photography-just paintings &drawings) on display in gallery shows which have sold.
I have a problem with someone re-printing or keeping a copy of my work without permission.
“Would they report you to some authority? (who?)”
Consenting adults, doing natural stuff, not illegal.
Why could that be, potentially, reported?
I don’t think any one would keep a copy, other maybe, than for personal use (if they found something so exhilerating).
But even then, there’s so much to be found online, for free, for all tastes, that I think it’s hardly interesting for employees of said services.
Really?
Good thing I own a Polaroid Instant camera.
@rebbel -LOL! We actually have one somewhere.
The problem developing now is people with cell phones taking pictures of your photos.
Story at 11….
I guess they could blackmail you but . . . .
