Humans have been photographed before and are therefore out of scope.

They're more specifically out of scope because the first person to ever photograph+publish a picture of a human (which would fit the upload rules as I read it), is long since deceased ;)

(I'm sure someone on here could point us to which photo this would be, though!)
