My posse is taking off, we're trying to decide what to switch to. I know I post publicly on my blog and here, but I'm very careful what I post and I'm pretty protective of my little girls. </p> <p>Also, they just shouldn't get away with policy changes like this, so I would boycott just for the heck of it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-stop-using-instagram-now-that-they-can-use-and-sell-your-photos#post-453638 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 13:01:15 +0000 autumnlove 453638@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'll still use!

So far, my IG pics are mostly food, things, outfit pics, what have you, but I LOVE seeing all the HB and bloggers babies &amp; kids on IG (so innocent and cute!) and would love to share when Baby Shopaholic gets here too! Especially since F&amp;F that live far away can see a bit of each other's daily lives and baby growing, but I'm sort of hesitant now with the new IG's policy.<br /> Would like to know how the other moms feel about it? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-stop-using-instagram-now-that-they-can-use-and-sell-your-photos#post-453468 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 11:52:54 +0000 aprk 453468@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like there is privacy risk with anything we post online ... FB, Twitter, IG, etc. My philosophy is not to post anything I'd not want to get out or be shared. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-stop-using-instagram-now-that-they-can-use-and-sell-your-photos#post-453455 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 11:49:24 +0000 Grace 453455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Blue: What does Mrs.Blue-the-lawyer feel is bad about Pinterest? </p> <p>I hadn't put anything on Instagram because I felt this might happen. It's a shame, because it's a really nice idea. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-stop-using-instagram-now-that-they-can-use-and-sell-your-photos#post-453411 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 11:39:48 +0000 sorrycharlie 453411@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@crash806: ok thanks, good to know! </p> <p>I actually love instagram more than facebook so I'm totally bummed about this. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-stop-using-instagram-now-that-they-can-use-and-sell-your-photos#post-453383 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 11:32:03 +0000 lavender 453383@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sorrycharlie: you can log onto their website and delete it from there, I just did.

I think I'm going to wait til closer to the deadline just in case they decide not to do this, but I can't figure out how to delete it anyway. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-stop-using-instagram-now-that-they-can-use-and-sell-your-photos#post-453371 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 11:28:27 +0000 sorrycharlie 453371@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsSCB: probably! it's a popular blog - the spohrs? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-stop-using-instagram-now-that-they-can-use-and-sell-your-photos#post-453365 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 11:26:14 +0000 lavender 453365@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just read the article and will be deleting my IG account. There are some things about my family life that I'd like to keep private. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-stop-using-instagram-now-that-they-can-use-and-sell-your-photos#post-453361 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 11:25:20 +0000 Turd Ferguson 453361@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: Agreed. </p> <p>I don't do much that's very exciting, and the stuff that I do have posted on Instagram/blog/etc. is all stuff I'd be fine with anybody having access to. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-stop-using-instagram-now-that-they-can-use-and-sell-your-photos#post-453340 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 11:18:29 +0000 MrsSCB 453340@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sorrycharlie: Omg, I saw that too, so scary. I wonder if it's the same one you were reading? I certainly hope so, because I really hope this doesn't happen super often, but I'm not confident if that is the truth. So disturbing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-stop-using-instagram-now-that-they-can-use-and-sell-your-photos#post-453289 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 10:57:10 +0000 sorrycharlie 453289@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Thehistoryofus: thats so true! you can pin anything.</p> <p>I read a blog, and remember reading that they were contacted by police after a computer raid of a child pedo in another country showed innocent images of their daughter he had found on their blog. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-stop-using-instagram-now-that-they-can-use-and-sell-your-photos#post-453283 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 10:54:48 +0000 T.H.O.U. 453283@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would love to find an easy way to add a watermark to all of my photos and then upload them. I mean, really it is about the same as posting pictures here. Anyone can "pin" them to pinterest and next thing you know your kids picture is all over! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-stop-using-instagram-now-that-they-can-use-and-sell-your-photos#post-453271 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 10:47:08 +0000 mrs. wagon 453271@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Blue: sure! but who will the content belong to? heh ;) Just kidding. Unfortunately I don't have much to contribute yet, only "I feel guilty because I don't post enough"!!! </p>
