There was a discussion held on the etiquette board. The bride wanted to know how to request that her guests post absolutely no pictures of herself and her groom on facebook. (

The OP brought up a good point in her response to all the comments:
" Question for you all; just because FB and other sites like it exist, does that mean that I no longer have a right to have a say as to what is posted about me online? Is privacy really on the road to extinction on account of FB and the www?"
What are your thoughts?
I think that it is a shame that people that absolutely do not want pictures of themselves online for whatever reason don't really have much of a choice. A lot of the posters (including myself although I didn't post) don't really understand why she wouldn't want to see the pictures the next day, but just because we don't understand it doesn't mean she doesn't have a right to feel that way. Most of the posters on the discussion basically said "you can ask, but you can't really stop them." and I guess that's really the way of it.
Although it's NWR - what if you're in the witness protection program or something? It's kind of a scary thought that your safety could be compromised just because someone posts an innocent picture of you on facebook! Or maybe I just watch too much Criminal Minds haha.
