Rest snipped. Of course they're not *private*, in that sense of the word. Other than keeping web spiders from archiving your pictures, it serves no purpose whatsoever. If you have pictures you don't want to share with strangers, don't put them on Flickr. Seems simple enough. -- It's Full Disclosure. Post the disclosure here, not on your website. You may not have a web site tomorrow. ___ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it. Charter: http://lists.grok.org.uk/full-disclosure-charter.html Hosted and sponsored by Secunia - http://secunia.com/
[Full-disclosure] flickr not truly private
flickr say you can mark your photos private. when you look at the web interface maybe. just give the direct address of a picture to one with no access he grabs it no problem. google images tips left as an exercise. for the brute forcers it looks like feasible, maybe difficult. targetting someone is easier with an estimation of the time of upload, as first part of the filename is incremental. for the rest maybe they did the job right, maybe not. apologies if this is lame or already known. ___ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
