In reply to the discussion: Zuckerberg using photos of 13-y.o. schoolgirls to lure men to Threads [View all]LeftInTX
(34,006 posts)28. Sorta...but in a billionaire's ad?
I remember signing disclaimers that my pic or kids pics could be used in promotional materials or possibly media. However, it was generally associated with non-profits and school etc. Schools do occasionally have pictures of students, the media comes to schools and often there are pics of the kids in the background. Student athletes are often featured in the media. Parents all sign disclaimers.
But it isn't quite the same as using the student the student in a billionaire's ad. Zuckerberg can afford to pay for ads.

IIRC, the proto-Facebook was used to rate female students for how hot they were . . .

The Social Network is the name of the film, and it's a well-crafted film at that.
