They've been emailing me like twice a day for almost two years to "protect my pictures". I thought they were doing it to pump their active user numbers, but this makes a lot more sense.

Same here - they finally said in a recent email how many of those pictures were at risk... 2. Just two pictures. Fuck off Photobucket.

I deleted my archive when they started sending those emails. I could see nothing good was going to result from ignoring them or giving them permission to keep it.

Just tried to go to my account - here’s the pop up. Promptly said fuck off and deleted my account.
That also does mean that photobucket is training their fucking AI on my old account, which is full of Memes and Gifs I totally don't have the copyright to. Some of them might even be from Disney movies.
