So idk if others have noticed this before – but it’s the first time I’m seeing this, hence the post.

There’s a website, https://www.photosugar.com, which apparently mirrors all pictures, gifsets etc. people post on their tumblrs (and also other social media sites like twitter and instagram, if I understand it correctly).

An eample for a tumblr user, with my name:

https://www.photosugar.com/tu/lordhellebore

Now it won‘t turn up anything but a 404 error in my case, because I sent an e-mail to the contact address, which is darius@photosugar.com with the title “My content on your website”:

Hello,

it’s come to my attention that you are mirroring all of the posts containing
pictures/gifs that I post on my tumblr. I am asking you to stop pulling the content from my tumblr and to
delete me from your website.

tumblr username is „lordhellebore“

Thank you.

I got a reply consisting of the single word “removed” after just one day, and as you can see, it worked perfectly fine with the informal mail I sent. So if you want them to stop mirroring your tumblr, it seems all you really need to to is this.  

I can’t test the site for all of my mutuals, but I’m tagging a few whom I found on there by random trial & error, and I suggest you look yourself up if you see this post and dislike tumblr mirrors (even if this one is only for pictures, not text).

@janiedean, @ladytp, @vaysh11, @lunavagantt, @einemelodieimwind, @robb-greyjoy, @youbuggingme, @ysilme, @rex-luscus, @bai-xue, @viendiletto, @electricalice, @contessa-de-leusse, @memetic-mutism, @bluecichlid, @mrs-storm-andrews, @ladymothwing, @prismatic-bell, @kittykatknits, @tinkili

….basically, whomever I’m trying at random, it seems that you’re on there.

 Please reblog so others can know and ask for removal if they want to.

My blog appears there. Don’t want to. Will mail asap.

EDIT : They’ve added a link to remove people’s profiles : https://www.photosugar.com/remove

Wtf. I was on there. Easy to remove.

That is pretty creepy

Holey mother of cheese.

This is not fair use, y’all. Everything you post is copyright you, and tumblr’s rights to it are spelled out in the policy we all agreed to without reading when we signed up. These people are just yanking your photo posts (including your reblogs) and publishing them in a modified format without even notifying you, for whatever purpose – some way of making money off our labor, I guess.

I think the worst part was showing even the last likes… For God sake, I use tumblr just forSim-related stuff, bu what if I’d like to post a pic of myself?

Removed myself, they could at least ask for permission, before doing something like that.

I just removed my profile. That was creepy!

Signal boost! I was on there too, and by Sena, Do Not Want.

Just removed myself, so weird. I wasn’t expecting a sims blog like mine to be copied onto anything.

Check your blog names

Yikes. All 3 of my blogs are on it. Wtf?

@coffee-obsessed-writer @nobodys-baby-now @docharleythegeekqueen @lefthologramdeer

I found myself on there…. removed myself, too. Not cool.

Thanks for letting us know this.. found mine & removed it

So my blog is was on here and I just removed it. My side blog with imagines was also on there and is now removed. Y’all might wanna go search for your tumblr blog and make sure you’re not on here too. It’s easy to remove your blog  by going to https://www.photosugar.com/remove and typing in your blog name

Tagging some people who might wanna know about this:

@star-spangled-man-with-a-plan @kellyn1604 @flamehairedwritings @ericuhlorain @superprincesspea @superwholoki @supernaturally-lucky @annablack1102 @ne-gans @prettyepiic @hannibalssweaters @strangersangel9 @bamby0304 @sherrybaby14 @kittenofdoomage @lucifer-in-leather @sirlsplayland @risingphoenix761 @is-this-you-manning-up-sammy @217fanfic @embracetheapocalypsewithme @dusty-cookie @letsby @noodlecupcakes @londoncapsule @jobean12-blog @badsongwinchester @vizhi0n @wickednerdery @84reedsy 

DON’T SCROLL PASSED!! READ THIS!! DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR, GO BACK UP AND READ THIS POST!!!!!

So, my library blog was on there, but not my main. Still, what the fuck?!?!

I entered a few friends’ names in and found these people:

@kittenofdoomage @superprincesspea @sis-tafics @yourvoiceislikearose @crispychrissy @moonlitskinwalker @squirrel-moose-winchester @curly-haired-disaster @dean-winchesters-bacon @anticipate1003

Like, seriously people, anyone could be on there. Share the shit out of this post. Tell your friends. This is so not cool.

Thank you so much @bamby0304, I’m really glad I have an awesome friend like you looking out for me! I don’t have good internet at ALL right now, but, after a good bit of waiting for the pages to load I was able to remove myself.

GUYS READ THE POST ITS IMPORTANT!

Tagging my people who might be interested: @princess-of-erebor1992 @deanssweetheart23 @sofreddie @shawnmend-yes @wordsandshawn @shawnsinmyblood @through-thesilver-lining @holyfuckloueh @givenchyshawn

Check the website to see if you’re there!

After finding out my blog was on there i did a quick search of people on my dash/mutuals and found some others. Please spread this!!

@clareonkeys @haesthete @flickershawn @stitchesmp3 @for-my-mind @mendes-grande @frickyouralmonds @saintslurent @pinkanddepressed @focus-hoe @singledadharrington

Basically, if you go to that link and search your username you find this

You can see every pic/gif you reblogged and posted, it says when it was posted and, when it comes to reblogs, it says the person you reblogged it from and the person who originally posted it; it also says who reblogged and who liked it

Now, I don’t know about you but I really don’t want my blog in there and that’s why I’ll be using the link to remove it once I finish this

So, I did a quick research on a few mutuals whose usernames I remembered from the top of my head

@nestablebirds @calumsstrash @livelifesosily @beyond-ladders @5secondsofsomerhalder @egyptiangoldhood @lavieenbananabread @calumspeachy @mxre-calum @babylon-cal @planetxrobot @sunster14 @lordofassgard @ashtonsunshine

I found your blog there

IF YOU SEE THIS, READ THE POST AND BOOST IT

This creeped the shit out of me

Like @classy5-sos did (thank you so much btw), I typed the name of some blogs I remembered

If I tagged you, you’re there

@morejinplease @leanonsvt @screaminghoseok @gamerwoo @agusttholly @papi-chulo-bucky @steph-oliveira @1-800-273-82 @call-me-hurricane-irene @stilinski-lover-24 @minmiin1d @rain-monster @trulymadlysydney @wolfgamzee @thatblackmullet @kooksluv @voidkitsune24 @pirisoriltarrawa @badgyaldene

Whether we’re mutuals, or if we’ve never talked this is important

SPREAD THIS NO MATTER IF YOU WERE TAGGED OR NOT
