Here's a non-paywalled link to an article published in the Washington Post a few days ago. It's great to see this kind of thing getting some mainstream attention. Young children have not made an informed decision about whether they want their photos posted online.

I haven't heard anything bad about Grayjay before; what's the issue with it?

Non free software pretending to be foss. It pisses me off and it can't possibly be better than third party clients.

https://gitlab.futo.org/videostreaming/grayjay it is a paid program that is why it is not allowed to fork from it atleast without approval .Altough you can use it without paying

That's bad comparison. Why use something that harms your freedom when you could use something that protects it? Grayjay is up there with Nord VPN and other services shilled by Youtubers.
