The company
claimed that the sender would
be notified if
the recipient captured a screen shot when he/she is watching the video or
photo. However, some
third-party applications can save the screen shot easily without giving alert to the sender.
Also, the user can buy up to 20 pieces of replays of storage.[3] Even if the images are
deleted, the information could still be recovered like the PC hard drive do.[4] When you delete a file from the recycle bin, the
information of this file is still remain on the hard drive, some recovery
software can read these information and recover the file precisely if the hard
drive is not damaged. That’s the reason why we need a file shredder. It covers
the file several times on the hard drive with meaningless information to
prevent some specific software to recover the file. When a user sends a video
to his/her friend, what he/she expect is that the video would disappear after
his/her friend viewing the video. But the truth may be that his/her friend paid
$5.79 and saved his/her video without his/her permission. So, the company
remind their users that do not share the photos or videos which you do not want
other people to save. As long as an electronic device is connected to the
internet, it is exposed to hackers, trojans, spywares and other kinds of
tracking technologies. Even if the user has some protection solutions, they
just reduce the chance of privacy problems and it never prevents the risk. So, it is suggested that in order to keep privacy
secret, it’s better not to send it online and it is the most efficient and safe
solution.
