I'm not surprised. I wish people would get
their own web space, or find other ways
to share without becoming dupes for sleazy
commercial hosts.

I finally decided to make a list of image sites.
One column is sites I can see with script disabled
in the browser, where there's no funny business.
Those sites actually allow people to store and share
images.
The other column is sites where I can't see images
with script disabled. I don't bother when people post
those links. There's no excuse for needing to enable
executable code in the browser just to access a single
image file.
In case it's of any interest to people:

Clean sites that don't require cookies, or script,
or Flash, or any other executable hanky panky in
the browser. These sites actually provide a link to
the image, as expected:

imgur.com
postimg.org
dropboxusercontent.com

(dropbox.com links do require script, but when the
link ends with "dl=0" that can be changed to "dl=1"
to enable downloading the file directly by just
loading the link.)

Image sites that use redirection/obfuscation to
prevent accessing the image unless one allows
executable code:

photobucket.com
tinypic.com
flickr.com

With malware increasingly being installed through
ads booby trapped with script, allowing any kind
of 3rd-party ads is becoming risky, not only for
privacy but now also for security. (Script itself has
always been risky.)

Just this week there was news
that a hack of dropbox in 2012 resulted in 68 million
accounts being compromised. It took 4 years for
the news that email addresses AND passwords were
taken in the hack. Dropbox themselves never
admitted to that until a cache of the stolen data was
discovered online this past week. Then they sent
out emails to the effect of "If you haven't reset your
password in 4 years, you might want to think
about it". A hack like that can not only put private
files at risk but could also be used to rig dropbox sites
with malware files.... And, of course, that malware
would almost certainly require script to deliver its
payload.
