Here’s something I saw on Mastodon today.
Trenton Matthews: Boosting Cyan (CyanMatter): @emilygorcenski Going off on a tangent here. I’ve been telling anyone who has ears that they shouldn’t post private pictures on Discord. Whether it’s posted to a server with just friends or in the DMs, Discord’s CDN is public, meaning anyone who can make a good guess can get access to those media files.
Does this mean that this CDN could in theory without knowing it share your secrets within those photos?
Apparently, Tesla had an issue where their car took video even though it was completely off. This apparently got to Musk who was apparently caught with his own car uplading to his servers. Nothing ever came of it, from what I gather, so what about this new revelation in the quoted section above?
It doesn’t matter if a car does it, or your CDN does it, I’ve never posted pictures online like that and I only have one picture.
