Thanks di for your kind words! Yeah,it's very important to be active on these type of social sites as they keep changing its privacy policy and settings.Recently,Instagram(Popular photos sharing Service)updates its policy that it can use your photos and personal data in their advertising options And as soon as people got this news they started leaving the service.And finally Instagram have to roll back policy on Advertising 😀
