    I can think of quite a few former bosses who would have had a problem if I had that picture in my browser history. Clearly they should be more open minded, but that wouldn’t help me.

    The deeper you get into this topic the more sane Rojo’s arguments become. Many of you guys really worship power. And don’t question it.
    Human are rational beings with the ability to draw meaningful distinctions. Well, most are, you don’t seem to be able to.

    You don't have a right to employment in this country. I think you probably should (and it's not that weird an idea historically), but I understand that it's not a popular point of view.

    You know with 100% certainty that there are going to be a ton of religious and health carve-outs if employers try to do this (and they mostly won't), and yet you're still worried? Really?

    I’d like to know how you make your distinctions. Would you let your employer perform a colonoscopy every morning before work to “make sure you weren’t infecting” others? At what point can the employer stop invading your person?

    That’s not the NYT. And again, who said anything about employer? This is my personal phone. Who said anything about problematic? You are trying very hard to make this a culture war/woke thing and that’s really not it.

    In the age of #metoo we really cannot comprehend why someone would not want an image of a kid like that on their internet history? This wasn’t embedded in an NYT article. It was an image only posted to a message board.

    Yes I am worried. Absolutely. Why aren’t you?

    I was responding to BostonRed's post. I honestly know no idea who is seaching your web history or why you care. You should leave your comfy little safe space and live for a while in a place where they monitor everything.

    Again, your statement was very weird. There is nothing wrong with having a historical link in your browser history.

    Sounds like you had some really stupid former bosses. I get that.

    You are the one that is making it about a naked child. That in itself is creepy beyond belief, much more than the picture.

    I remember when I lived in Germany, and I visited Dachau once. It is far more preserved than any other former camp such as Auschwitz, and respectfully but accurately done. So many of my friends afterward told me "How can you go there? I wish people would just forget about it!" And these were people in their 20s and 30s.

    The world is yucky, so get over it and stop acting so Mormon.

    It wasn’t a historical link. It was an image posted to this site of a child with absolutely no context.

    Oh god, everything has to be about safe space. I tend to not like looking at pictures of little kids like that and don’t want it anywhere near my internet history. Maybe you do like to look at pictures like that.

    No one click on this link to a February 17, 2020 article from the NYT. IT is in there. Wouldn't want to corrupt that browser history!

    It's a famous photo that I have seen so much that I can close my eyes and see it... it is that famous.

    But the full comparison Rojo is making is apples to oranges to me.

    There is a reason why VPN and incognito browsers are so popular. Our browser histories are minefields that have destroyed relationships, jobs and more. Unless you’ve never had a phone or computer, I can’t believe anyone these days doesn’t understand this.

    THERE WAS NO CONTEXT WITH THE PICTURE. It was just a picture of a child. I saw the picture and immediately closed the thread. Creepy? Jesus Christ.

    And by the way old man, I could not care less you lived in Germany. You’ve mentioned it a million times. Who cares.

    For the hundredth time, I had no idea what the photo was and it was not a link to the NYT. It was just an image. I closed the thread immediately when I saw it.
