Safe Blogging Masterpost

Since Tumblr is purging fan accounts from every fandom I thought I’d make a master post of resources for safe blogging.

What we know so far:

This started with Backgrid and Splash New using reverse image search through a third party to protect their photos.

It was first limited to paparazzi photos, events, red carpets and set photos.

However now it is rumored to be extended to other stuff like celebrity photoshoots etc.

A better, proper explanation here.

FAQs:

Rebloging is fine, only the original post will get flagged and deleted.

You get three strikes for copyright infringement and then your blog gets terminated.

If your main blog gets terminated, then all your sideblogs go, no matter if you are a member or an admin.

If you get warnings for your sideblog then only the sideblog gets terminated.

Notes or no notes, if you have posted anything from the above category, it will be flagged.

It’s not limited only to the United States, it’s happening internationally.

If your edit is a part of a larger graphic and different form the original offending photo you’re probably safe.

It’s not limited to one fandom, everyone is being effected from Marvel, to Musicians, to WWE, EVERYONE.

Gifs are fine, only copyrighted images are under scrutiny.

Protective Measures:

The best option so far is to delete any photos you posted (POSTED, not reblogged).

Like I mentioned above it was limited to only paparazzi photos but now it’s rumoured to be extended to everything that was not posted by the celebrity themselves.

If you’re very attached to your edit, changing the post to “private” may help (but probably not for very long.)

This is an excellent post about how to buy some time to delete posts or to protect your blog.

This website hides all of your reblogs so you can use it to see all your original post and delete the offending ones. (Also mentioned in the above post)

You can also take a backup of your blog by going to tumblr.com/settings/blog/your url and clicking on Export at the bottom of the page.

@captainevanss has answered many asks on this, please go through her blog before sending another ask, she has answered every possible question there is.

Future Blogging:

If you post photos in future remember to save it as a new post and remove existing EXIF details before posting through third party apps (via @tessathompsson and @steven-rogers)

Some excelent tips for future safe blogging

I’ll keep adding more info. Stay safe kids, hope you don’t get snapped!

BECAUSE YOU DEMANDED IT, I'm back with more Sad Boat Books for Sad Boat People! But first, some words.

I never dreamed that a silly little graphic I made for some friends would generate this much response on twitter and here, but I'm overjoyed that it resonated with so many of you! I read every single comment and tag, and by far my favorites are all of the people who say some variation of "I thought I was the only one who loved these books." We are NOT alone, there are literally thousands of people who reblogged or retweeted this list-- people of all ages and backgrounds and gender identities. Sad Boat isn't just for old white men! I was also delighted to hear from other librarians who are using this in displays and for reader's advisory. PLEASE go forth and do so with my blessing, nothing would make me happier! I was recently laid off from my librarian job as part of a restructuring under new management (don't worry about me, it sucks right now but I'm gonna be fine), so I would love to think that I'm still contributing to the library ecosystem while I'm out of commission. I would also love to keep making these lists (including one that deals with Sad Boat fiction and one with recommendations for other types of media), and I've never had more time to do it, so if you have suggestions, please drop them in my inbox!

Anyway, enough of that-- here are more books! I've either read all of these, or the recommendation came from someone I trust, so read with confidence!
