Hello all,
I just joined this forum in hopes of searching for an answer. I know my situation is extremely common and have read a lot of the threads on here, but I just would like to see if there is any updated information or tips on this.
I am a young college student modeling on Chaturbate, trying to save up enough to move out, and I have recently been informed that my shows have found their way onto like 20+ websites. I'm aware that I was extremely naive in thinking these things didn't happen when I first joined, but now I'm just super distressed. I can't help but worry about this every second of every day because none of my family members know I do this and I know I would be the biggest disappointment and shame to them if they did find out. I literally just joined Chaturbate in February and didn't know every single one of my videos from then were posted (and each of them getting more than 3000+ views). I'm so scared for my future and have decided not to cam anymore, but I still can't live with the fact that my videos are
everywhere.
I looked through many of the threads on here, which were extremely helpful. I ended up emailing
models@myfreecamsmail.com,
dmca@chaturbate.com, as well as the general support email of Chaturbate, and I was just wondering if they have a good reply/help rate? I'm just so on edge thinking about all the new views I'm already getting as I'm typing this. If there is any new advice or tips from people who know how to successfully get these videos taken down please let me know. Thank you so much :')
From a fellow model
Hi,
I am just some dude who has admired so many women across so many webcams for so many years.
And I've seen all sorts of personal violations... along the lines of some anonymous viewer publishing in the Chaturbate chat the name and address of a performer, during her first-ever cam show... and somebody publishing the full personal Facebook page link, merely from googling a Chaturbate model's username.
And as someone who pays lots of attention to detail, I have a strong sense for how many models just leave without a trace... and often it isn't until the occasional update of my large "(models followed)" list that I realize that somebody hasn't been around for a month or more.
SO... now and again I am reminded of the names of the people I've witnessed being so violated online... and I can report that one (dreamy) young woman who brazenly broadcasted from her college dormroom, with some familiar campus structures visible out the window behind her (to those who knew the area - not to me), and whose personal Facebook/Instagram ID was published in her room on her 1st or 2nd Chaturbate broadcast, resulting in her abrupt exit that day... has successfully erased her image from the web, even though there had been some pretty appealing videos of her in full nude masturbation mode floating around in various spots.
Admittedly a key to ever finding them would be
her self-selected chaturbate nickname... so it is kind of tricky to decide which way to go, when selecting that nickname:
do you go completely raunchy, to get attention in the moment?
do you go very bland and easily blended-in (to help preserve anonymity) ?
do you go considerably "unique" to your own personal world... which will have the drawbacks of possibly helping others track-down your content later on.
At any rate, all models who embark upon a webcamming career should *expect* (as the rule, not the exception) that their nude images will indeed permiate the internet, at least for a time.
(oh, I just thought of another (buxom) young woman who was 18 and still in high school when she began at Chaturbate... and she raked it in immediately... and later she finally quit...
and there were a few stray videos of her nude form out there in internet land, but they too have evaporated from my vast-enough awareness of what's out there, to have me thinking she's pretty safe (again) ).
One thing at work NOW.... that wasn't working in webcam models' favor a decade ago when Chaturbate first started...
is that same HUGE INFLUX of porn material... what with the creators (stars) of the porn having a much better line toward being the ones getting the most cash reward for their porn... instead of the porn masters of old... there are more people entering the porn market who are creating more and more content.
Also, with economic times having widened the divide between the "haves" and the "have-nots"... along with webcam technology easily incentivizing models from the world over... there is just more and more good porn out there and entering the internet realm every day.
BUT... the boys you went to high school with... are and will always be STILL the same...
(
when they sense you REacting in shame to their having encountered your online nudes... they will pursue and pursue just to get that ""reaction"" from you)
So while lots of truly successful long-term models crossed these bridges years ago... (that they "don't care" )... it is good for others to have a PRE-programmed response which strongly/clearly implies their SEEMING NOT to care (that some dude who sat 2 rows over in High School Geometry found her nudes online)... upon being confronted BY that Geometry classmate.
I'm sure you'll hear from lots of other models... who surely pay complete/plenty-of attention to their OWN content, and to whether it gets 'out there' ...
but I hope it helps in some small way to hear from a Chaturbate afficionado who notices the small details, and who knows his way around the online porn world...
who tells you that although there must be zillions of small dust-ups where some random person found some hint of one's online nudity (otherwise the CB turn-over rate wouldn't be anywhere near to what is steadily seems to be)... the instance of innocent-ISH young women who once spent time on Chaturbate AND WHO were NOT comfortable-ish with their nude images being all over the online porn world... AND WHO are still, after a year or two finding their content easily unearthed by eager neighbors/classmates/coworkers... is considerably minimal COMPARED TO WHAT somebody considering only human nature, and their own personal seeming peril, would tend to expect.
I could even name a present-day Chaturbate model of at least 6 months for whom an online search of her Chaturbate username unearths ZERO nude content... (she is someone who ONLY bares it all in 'pay-to-see' shows)
She draws a decent crowd in the open rooms, but I guess those who are recording such content wouldn't be bothered with the private shows since there are so many other available content-makers who are showing it all in 'public' chat.
Hope this helps your confidence just a little.
