So idk if others have noticed this before – but it’s the first time I’m seeing this, hence the post.

There’s a website, https://www.photosugar.com, which apparently mirrors all pictures, gifsets etc. people post on their tumblrs (and also other social media sites like twitter and instagram, if I understand it correctly).

An example for a tumblr user, with my name:

https://www.photosugar.com/tu/lordhellebore

Now it won‘t turn up anything but a 404 error in my case, because I sent an e-mail to the contact address, which is darius@photosugar.com with the title “My content on your website”:

Hello,

it’s come to my attention that you are mirroring all of the posts containing
pictures/gifs that I post on my tumblr. I am asking you to stop pulling the content from my tumblr and to
delete me from your website.

tumblr username is „lordhellebore“

Thank you.

I got a reply consisting of the single word “removed” after just one day, and as you can see, it worked perfectly fine with the informal mail I sent. So if you want them to stop mirroring your tumblr, it seems all you really need to do is this.  

I can’t test the site for all of my mutuals, but I’m tagging a few whom I found on there by random trial & error, and I suggest you look yourself up if you see this post and dislike tumblr mirrors (even if this one is only for pictures, not text).

@janiedean, @ladytp, @vaysh11, @lunavagantt, @einemelodieimwind, @robb-greyjoy, @youbuggingme, @ysilme, @rex-luscus, @bai-xue, @viendiletto, @electricalice, @contessa-de-leusse, @memetic-mutism, @bluecichlid, @mrs-storm-andrews, @ladymothwing, @prismatic-bell, @kittykatknits, @tinkili

….basically, whomever I’m trying at random, it seems that you’re on there.

 Please reblog so others can know and ask for removal if they want to. 

Reblogging this because for whatever perverted, voyeuristic reason, the person or persons who run this “photosugar” have copied my random as hell blog. Just sent an email to the address stated in the original post, and I highly suggest you all look on this site for your content as well.

THIS IS ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING!

I sent an email for all my URLs with content and tagging the mutuals I can find on there who probably want themselves removed

(this applies to any sideblogs you have too)

and to spread the word. Check your other social media too.

Yeah even my random shit is up there. I didn’t check a lot of urls but I do know @xx-thedarklord-xx @gold-from-straw @artemisnightingale216 @elizabethhollowswriting and @allmyfandomthings are up there if y’all want your stuff taken down.

E-mailed them and got an nearly immediately reply with the link: https://www.photosugar.com/remove

So you can now remove yourself from their site on your own
