ColorCodePurple Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 So just randomly I google searched my name, and I saw my profile pictures from my google plus, twitter, soundcloud and every social service I signed up for come up on Google images. This didn't happen ever before and to me this seems to be a massive security issue.Is this normal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Boss Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 Well my pic didn't come when I did a google search, so my privacy settings seem fine. EDIT: A bunch of my friend's pics from googleplus and linkedin did appear in the search results Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shantz Posted July 2, 2013 Report Share Posted July 2, 2013 All my social profiles are open for all anyways. So I don't really have much concern over my pics showing up in google images. It's not like I'm a girl and someone will morph my pics and put on a pr0n site inb4beingcalledsexistforgirlexample Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
