Candid Creepshots: Why They’re Harmful & How to Stop Them

[Megan Thee Stallion]

100% agree with this.


There’s nothing artistic about violating someone’s privacy. People acting like it’s “harmless” need to understand that what they’re doing could get them in serious trouble — legally and morally.


Props for raising awareness without making it preachy. Respect

Posts like this are why online spaces still have hope.


If we all report that garbage when we see it, maybe we can finally stop pretending it’s “normal.”


Respect, OP

This is terrifying but necessary. I wish more parents knew about this. Maybe include tips on how to talk to kids about online privacy and consent—it could make the post even more actionable

 

[Luke Combs Blake]

I really appreciate your distinction between candid photography and creepshots. You could add examples of ethical candid photography or a short guide on getting consent—it would help aspiring photographers understand the boundaries.

 

[John F. Kennedy]

Good coverage of the legal risks. You might want to include links to specific laws in different countries or explain what kind of penalties people could face—it makes the consequences clearer

 

[Kourtney Kardashian]

Excellent call-to-action for reporting. Maybe add step-by-step instructions for reporting on Reddit, X, or other platforms—some people might not know exactly how to do it

 

[Ernest Hemingway1]

This is very well written. You could also explain how metadata or location info in images can make creepshots even more dangerous, so readers understand the full privacy risk

 

[Colin Kaepernick]

Wow, I didn’t realize how harmful these sites were. Maybe a few examples of how to protect yourself online or recognize when a photo is being misused would make it more relatable

 

[Martha Stewart]

I like that you included real stories—it makes the impact more tangible. You could add guidance for teachers or students on digital citizenship and how to report harassment safely.

 

[Frank Sinatra]

Thanks for the info! Some of the Reddit examples are shocking. Maybe you could include some resources or hotlines for victims—people reading this might want immediate help

 

[Ernest Hemingway]

Your post is engaging and serious without being scary. You could also highlight the importance of sharing posts like this to raise awareness—it might encourage community responsibility

 

[Malcolm Gladwell]

This is crucial. I’d suggest including links to organizations that fight online exploitation or provide support to victims. That would give readers a concrete way to take action

 

[Ellen DeGenere]

I liked your clarity on the line between art and exploitation. Could maybe include a checklist of dos and don’ts for candid photography—makes it more practical for people learning the craft

 

[Barack Obama]

Interesting post! Some of the language could be simplified for younger audiences or casual readers—terms like ‘candid creepshots’ might need a clearer intro for people who haven’t heard of it

 

[Natalie Portman]

Great breakdown. You could also add a section on how media coverage or online reporting has influenced platforms cracking down on creepshots. Adds context for readers about systemic change

 

[Margot Robbie Zendaya]

I appreciate including the guilt and shame angle. Maybe also suggest how victims and perpetrators alike can get counseling or therapy—makes it a more holistic guide

Thank you for raising awareness about this topic. So many people don’t realize how damaging non-consensual photos can be. I appreciate how clearly you explained the difference between candid photography and invasive behaviou

 

[legit man]

This was really eye-opening. I used to think creepshots were just ‘internet jokes,’ but your examples make it clear how harmful and illegal they actually are. More people need to read this

I love how responsibly you handled this subject. The reminders about consent and ethical photography were spot-on. Your writing makes it very easy to understand why reporting these sites is so important
