Sounds like a good time to reiterate the advice: Don’t upload things to the internet that you don’t want to be on the internet. That way there won’t be any of your things on the internet that you didn’t want to be there.
It's always hilarious how people try to pretend that it's easy to just drop out of society and the systems that people use to keep in touch. Sure, you can live like the unabomber in a shed in Montana with no phone service, but having that be the only option to keep your personal data safe from leaks is a bit much of an ask. People should be able to live their lives and take reasonable but not extraordinary precautions to safeguard their privacy and be able to have some expectation of privacy as a result. Unfortunately, there is so much data being collected on everyone, so many intrusions to our private lives, and so little care being taken by the stewards of that private data that it is not, it turns out, a reasonable expectation. And the onus for solving that problem shouldn't be on individuals. We shouldn't be forced to live our lives in fear of digital representations of our appearance being leaked onto the internet as someone might have once feared an ordinary photograph could steal a soul. Rather, those who are going to great efforts to destroy the boundaries of personal privacy should be heavily regulated to prevent them from doing so and heavily incentivized to safeguard private data whenever they are in possession of it.
This means anyone in the world can upload an image, tag you in it, and it will show up in searches for you. It still won’t show up on your profile if you have confirmations for that enabled, but still.
This means that if you started to upload a photo to the uploader wizard and then thought better, the photo is still out there.
