honestly same lol. i've been doing it for a few years now. i made a bunch of my albums private for close friends only on fb from college parties..it was a long time ago, so it's just i dunno..i don't know if people want those photos out there either. i've tried to delete any photos i thought people may not want online anymore, from like 20 years ago. i had to testify as a witness a few years ago, and i didn't know if anything from my socials would be used, so i was a little worried there..like...do i have anything that can used against me??? is it legal for them to do that??
