Re: (ET) My new toy

I get "This content is currently unavailable."  

Call me a Luddite if you will, but I don't do social media either.  I 
don't 
like the user agreements.  With all the bad press FB has been getting for 
its alleged privacy violations, more and more people are joining me and 
Reo43 in that position.  

Thus, if you want your pictures to be visible to the world, I suggest that 
you post them somewhere that DOES NOT require viewers to log in and/or 
agree 
to let large companies harvest their personal data.  

IMO, the best place to post them is on your own website that you fully 
control.  

Many ISPs give their users a modest amount of personal webspace as part of 
the package.

If yours doesn't, you can lease a webserver fairly cheaply.   Around $5 a 
month should do it for a minimal website, and I've seen a few for even 
less. 
Such a server shouldn't have any spyware unless you install it.

Nearly Free Speech let you pay only for the bandwith and services you use. 
 
They estimate that if you register your domain name with them,  a small 
website will cost about $22 per year.

Note that I haven't used these guys, they're just one option I discovered 
when I last moved my hosting several years ago.

Hope this helps.
