If you don't want your stuff shared on the net, I suggest disconnecting your modem...that's about the only option you have to protect yourself.

There is a difference.
Screenshots - don't come up same resolution and same size as original picture. Technically illiterate *might* struggle ;)
Photo sharing makes sense if you post photo, people like it, they share it with their followers and everyone can see beautiful photos, they follow the photographers of their choice. However, once saving someone else's photos is allowed, people save it, upload it as if it is their own work. This is exactly how piracy of most art started. Although this seems very panty twisting sort of stuff, but if someone is out there taking "real" pictures and not adding filters to noodles and burgers, I think they deserve all the credit when their work is re-posted. I am all in for open innovation etc but I am not going to support someone's work of art being claimed as someone else's.
