Methods, systems, and devices for delivering image data from captured images to devices

A system comprising:

• circuitry configured to acquire an encrypted image that has previously been encrypted by an image capture device through use of a unique private code that is assigned to a user associated with the image capture device;
• circuitry configured to acquire metadata that is associated with the encrypted image, the metadata including a do not capture image instruction and one or more terms of service or a pointer to one or more terms of service associated with violation of the do not capture image instruction;
• circuitry configured to verify that the encrypted image is approved for decryption in violation of the do not capture instruction at least partly based on an estimated damage amount that is based on the one or more terms of service associated with violation of the do not capture image instruction;
• circuitry configured to decrypt the encrypted image into an unencrypted image in violation of the do not capture instruction at least partly in response to approval for decryption;
• and
• circuitry configured to release the unencrypted image for distribution on a social networking site.

A computer process comprising:

• acquiring metadata that is associated with the encrypted image, the metadata including a do not capture image instruction and one or more terms of service or a pointer to one or more terms of service associated with violation of the do not capture image instruction;
• verifying that the encrypted image is approved for decryption in violation of the do not capture instruction at least partly based on an estimated damage amount derived from the one or more terms of service associated with violation of the do not capture image instruction;
• decrypting the encrypted image into an unencrypted image in violation of the do not capture instruction at least partly in response to approval for decryption;
• and
• releasing the unencrypted image for distribution on a social networking site.
