Ombudsman calls for exercising caution when posting photos of children on social media
The Human Rights Defender of Armenia Arman Tatoyan calls for staying extremely careful when posting photos of children, especially young children, on Facebook and other social networks.
"It is important to note that this step loses your expectation of privacy for your child's photo. It can become the property of any other person from the next second. It, first of all makes, the child and, you as parents, vulnerable," tatoyan wrote on facebook, adding one can never guess by whom or for what purpose the picture of the child can be used.
"Unfortunately, social networks and especially Facebook are flooded with insults, hatred and other illegal activities," Tatoyan said.
