"Aged and alone"

[edit]

Hello Ryanglen2021!

I stumbled upon pictures you uploaded of a man from Uganda that you titled "Aged and alone" (1st pic, 2nd pic, 3rd pic).

Those pictures, along with this title, make me extremely uncomfortable for several reasons :

  • They seem to have been taken in this man's home, so not in a public place.
  • He's not looking at the camera in two of those pics, so it feels like you took those without his knowledge. Did he notice you taking those?
  • He seems to be impoverished, which, adding to the fact he's "old" (according to your description), places him in quite a vulnerable state in my opinion

Did this man really consent to have his picture taken in such a state/context, and published on Wikimedia Commons with the title "aged and alone"? Are you sure he fully understood the implication of your action (since he's old, we can assume he's not as knowledgeable as you are with digital technologies)?

I worry those pictures might represent an ethical problem regarding right of privacy and respect for this man's dignity.

Thank you for your answers. Regards --Titlutin (talk) 20:16, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
