How to increase safety when making content

Other posts removed. Keep off topic comments to a min....
On topic... If someone says they want a request, don't be willing to give them videos with your face, even if they claim they'll keep it private. IF they're only messaging you for content, they're not interested in your safety.

Oh, sorry for the irrelevant content but thank you for everything!!
 
Wear a mask of better yet don’t show your face and remove dog tags if you have on your pup.

Also do close up videos to hide so just your kitty and puppy will be shown in vids.
Be careful with masks. Current photo ID systems make a map of the corners of the eyes, corners of the mouth and tip of the nose. That's why they don't want you smiling on passport photos and don't want reflections from your glasses. Messes up the measurements. Even blinking during the photo messes up their system.

Make sure your mask covers the nose and makes it hard to see the corners of the eyes. Dark aviator sunglasses might work as well as long as the eyes can't be seen.

FYI, the state I live in keeps a data base of all driver's license photos. They've used them to catch people getting duplicate licenses, also people scamming local casinos from the surveillance videos.

Think about covering all electrical outlets. They can be used to help identify what country material is made in.

Speaking of casinos, if you want to have fun in a safe place, I recommend a website with a great selection of gambling games to choose from.

it is worth noting that the use of facial recognition technology by public and private organizations raises important ethical and privacy considerations.

Pretty sure the government hasn't been ethical in since forever. They know how to game the legal system. Laws apply to civilians, not them. And when they get caught breaking the law, their punishment is an apology and more training with a promise not to do it again. The government runs massive infrastructure for spying on the internet. Anyone who is fortunate enough to have friends post your pic and tag your name on it on social media.. Your facial biometrics are now in the hands of the government .
 
To note for those that want to use a phone for their activities, check out GrapheneOS , there is a list of mobile phones it supports, like the pixel line. Its a privacy based android OS. The phone needs to be carrier unlocked. You can use an always on VPN, and will block all data unless VPN is active. The camera app disables all metadata on media. If you decide to use it with a wireless carrier, you can get burner esim online. For telegram you can also use a SMS receive service to register without using your phone number.

How would you keep that account functional if you ever sign out or you are signed out by telegram or whatever reason?

Its for one time sign up. Best bet is have multiple devices activated as a backup. They can reauth other devices if one gets logged out. Also use a password in telegram and create a use name, as the phone number is useless and will not be used. Only share your username.

So the only way currently to have a telegram account that you can not be clocked out of is either to have an active sim card or a secondary device logged in? Sad that this has not changed.

Correct, if logged out of all devices need the active phone number that can receive SMS to get back in. Can also get a burner sim paid with cash. Maybe an esim online paid with a credit gift card purchased with cash
 
- Check the laws in your country.
Some countries allow ownership, making or viewing zoo content. This does not mean though that the place where your content will be eventually stored on a server has the same laws.
Besides the technical safety measures, being somewhat aligned with the law is probably the safest way to shoot porn. If I were to create content (commercially), I would most probably do it in specific countries/states in which animal porn has not been criminalised.

Great thread by the way, thank you
 
If you're that paranoid, get an external USB3 SSD, an old microwave, drill a hole in the window, feed the cable through and that's where the drive lives.

Bonus points for putting it on a dead man's timer :ROFLMAO:
 
Tips on how to make content and stay safe.
(Mods feel free to edit this post and add anything you think is missing).
Useful tips from comments will be added as well.

- Is it worth it at all?

- Do not send your content to anyone you can not fully trust.
The moment someone has evidence of you doing something illegal, they can blackmail you, threaten you, ruin your life and kill your pets.

- Check the laws in your country.

- Do not use a phone with no sd card support. Phones are inherently insecure devices.
Photos and thumbnails are saved in whole lot of places in internal storage and it is difficult to wipe them. Even with saving to a SD card thumbnails may still remain in internal storage.
Test this by running a few free deleted photo recovery apps you find in the app store.

- Use a normal camera and a dedicated sd card. Turn off any GPS/location abilities of the camera if it has some.
Once done with recording, wipe the SD card with a secure media wiping software like the erase function when formatting in linux or shred command that rewrites the whole card with random data.
Formatting alone is not enough, it does not touch the data until it is rewritten.
Test this again by running some deleted photo recovery software on the card.

- Delete metadata from the photos before uploading using some dedicated software for that.
Photos and videos and most files come with metadata. These include information on what device made that file including a whole lot of extra information like GPS location, lens ID, phone ID, software version...
Remove the metadata using some software like the linux perl exif tool (exiftool -overwrite_original -all= <filename>)
The forum does that for images, but do not rely just on that.

- If the camera has dead sensor pixels, that is identifiable.
Use the remapping tools in the camera to fix the issue.

- Blur out fingerprints.
Especially on close up photos, your fingers may be sharp enough that your fingerprints are visible.

- Avoid anything identifiable in the background.
Pay attention to what is in the photo or video. Avoid including identifiable items, texts, photos, art, statues, cars, including identifiable items belonging to for example a hotel...


- Avoid identifiable features you have on your body and your animal.
Face, tattoos, birth marks, rings, bracelets, specific marking on the animal, collars, pendants...

- Turn up the exposure on dark photos before you upload to see what is hiding in the shadows.
Often a photo seems dark and black, but turning up the exposure in post processing shows some data.

- Do not keep copies of your porn locally unless you really want to.
If you have to keep it, use strong encryption like VeraCrypt with long passwords.

- Use a dedicated computer/operating system to manipulate the files and upload them.
Computers just like phones keep copies of files and thumbnails in many places and may be difficult to clean. This is especially problematic with SSD drives which are not effectively wiped even by being rewritten.
Use a RAM only operating system like Tails linux that does not store any information permanently on any disk unless specifically configured to do so.
Very helpful information. Thank you
