Hi!! My friend's face was recently leaked on scratch, when he searches his user, his face shows up. He reported to scratch and they took down the project, but when you search his user. the project still appears with his face as the thumbnail. every friday or so, it'll leave, but then it'll come back. this is a huge privacy concern, one of his ex - friends, friends did it to him. We contacted scratch, and they said it should be removed. but its still there. ill post this on the bugs and glitches if its not correct, but any idea why this is happening?

Sounds like you've done what you can. I'm so sorry about this. This is not OK, and Scratch should be a safe place. Just keep silently reporting. Don't start any “report this” campaigns as it could get you in trouble.

You can take legal action against the person who put them up since these photos were shared online without your friend’s permission. There are multiple laws against photo sharing without permission. Nobody can legally share a photo without permission in most circumstances due to these laws. I checked if laws like this exist in the UK and they do. Get your friend a lawyer and sue them.

Or, if you're a minor, ask your friend to talk to their guardians about it. They may be able to consult a lawyer (if your friend and/or their guardians wish to sue) to look at the options.
