Photography has been kidnapped to the realm of the World Wide Web, causing a release that makes it accessible
 to who holds the technology and demands it. The development of low-cost devices for the capture and dissemination 
of images on the Web, along with social networks like Facebook, has catalyzed the need for posting images causing 
aesthetic discussions thanks to users comments on the interface.

This phenomenon has enclosed the digital photography to the computer screen, cell phone, the virtual space or electronic
 photo frames. Barely materialized despite the availability of printers (the supplies are still expensive) to capture the 
image is sufficient for the digital photographer, printing on paper may not be necessary because we have satiated the eye.
 Also, the screen (computer, television, cellular, Iphone, etc.) is the ideal display of digital media, keeping it within
 the enviorement in which it was generated.

The digital image feels like a spirit subject to the law of technology: the constant threat of being dismissed even before 
leaving the camera, to disappear along with the functionality of your computer, to be censored by a government or drowned
 in a cyber sea. These hazards are multiplied within Facebook, which is able to sell your information to third parties even 
after you close your account.

The publication of photographs of varying degrees of privacy in the Web creates a new stage in the History of self-representation
 and disclosure of personal images; The individual can now be captured quickly and permanently on the hard drive of a user
 (known or unknown), intervened, re-uploaded to the Internet and multiplied on different pages. Thus, the limits where our 
image and information lives have expanded in time and space, bringing tangible consequences in the real world. Although the 
Internet is immaterial and impermanent, is deeply connected to reality, especially the social and legal sphere.
