It's nice to see pictures of people. I like when parents share photos of my kids at events where they're having a great time but I couldn't make it. It's nice when the local paper shows a picture of happy graduating 8th graders.

Saying "you shouldn't do this thing that was basically harmless from the birth of photography until the ~2010's" is ignoring a lot of history and context.

Broadcasting private photos of children to strangers and corporations was common until 2010s? Were you posting them on classified section on newspapers in 1999?
