Nah, handing someone your phone without sensible precautions to lock down sensitive data is irresponsible and begging for trouble. There's never a good reason to do that just to show a photo. Someone might think you're sharing an album, and even then, there are far better ways to share without compromising security.
Might as well share your bank account with them or spread your ass cheeks wide open.
Such irresponsibility lacks etiquette.
Lack of text alternative breaks etiquette and web accessibility.
Images of text break much that text alternatives do not.
Losses due to image of text lacking alternative:
- usability
- we can't quote the text without pointless bullshit like retyping it or OCR
- text search is unavailable
- the system can't
- reflow text to varied screen sizes
- vary presentation (size, contrast)
- vary modality (audio, braille)
- accessibility
- lacks semantic structure (tags for titles, heading levels, sections, paragraphs, lists, emphasis, code, links, accessibility features, etc)
- some users can't read the image due to lack of alt text (markdown image description)
- users can't adapt the text for dyslexia or vision impairments
- systems can't read the text to them or send it to braille devices
- searchability: the "text" isn't indexable by search engine in a meaningful way
- fault tolerance: no text fallback if
- image breaks
- image host is geoblocked due to insane regulations.
Contrary to age & humble appearance, text is an advanced technology that provides all these capabilities absent from images.
