I’m going to try to do a video exclusive, I’ll try to act as an image thief, sort of a hacker if you want, just to prove the point.
Nothing fancy, I’ll just be trying to find larger images in the source code of websites, just to see how quickly you can get access to original files on some popular platforms.
Check out the video to see me do this for WordPress, Squarespace, and Wix.
The exception is when you’re running an eCommerce site where you do need high-res images for prints and downloads, in which case your platform should provide the security and not expose the full-res images.
