Does anyone know of a service (ideally docker image - probably with app) that can be used to securely share family pictures?

The idea is, that some relatives don't respect wishes of not posting to social media and to prevent this we want to securely share images they can look at but not do anything else with.

Even if I send an image to my mom and she knows not to post anywhere, maybe my aunt wants to see that picture, asks my mom to send it to her and then she posts it, without us knowing.

Probably only works with an app because a browser can't block screenshots.

Is there anything like this out there? Doesn't have to by anything special. Just a web backend for us to upload pictures and a client (probably through a URL) that can then browse them without allowing for screenshots, sharing, downloading, etc

Probably not. Anything like this would probably be overrun with or specifically designed for people sending shit like CSAM.

Honestly just you asking about this makes me very suspicious of your intent.

That said, of course anything like this is also functionally impossible because a determined person could just get around any sort of measures you are imagining, either natively on the device or just by taking a picture of one device with another.

So either you clearly have not thought this through or are looking for something like this for illicit purposes.

Either way this entire post is sus-deep

You seem to be a very judging person. I just hope you're not projecting your own thoughts onto other people.

I have thought this through, and obviously there's always ways around. But I know that my relatives are not tech savy enough, and taking a picture from another phone isn't something i can control anyway.

But why am I explaining this to you? The only thing on your mind seems to be CSAM, which is very suspicous and weird.

Maybe you aren't aware but this is a specific issue with the technology you are inquiring about. It is literally impossible what you are asking and the conceivable nefarious uses lead one to that conclusion so you clearly have not thought this through as that has been specifically an issue combatted on this very platform.

Also this being literally your only post on this account is what made me suspicious in the first place.

"Uh hey anyone know any apps I can use to make sure nobody else can screenshot or share the pictures or things I post?"

You don't see how that looks sus as all fuck?
