Ipernity

Anyone tried www.ipernity.com? Seems a good alternative to Flickr, which seems a good thing to look for given Yahoo’s less-than-ideal relationship with human rights ideals.

I’m trying out a free account here

Hey Robert-call me Mr Stupid,(and as you know a few people here on LS do),but what are the human rights issues with Yahoo/Flickr? Like many here I use Flickr just so I can post stuff easily into the LS group pool there or onto LS itself.
Best wishes,
JR.

Yahoo allowed the Chinese govt access to its email records in order to arrest a journalist (Shi Tao) in 2005 who is doing 10 years for disseminating info re Tienanmen Sq.
