Following is the text of an email I received today from Findmypast regarding settings relating to sharing information and photos uploaded by members to their site. What do you think of the changes? A good move or you would rather retain the status quo? Let me know in the Comments Section below.
"Changes to your sharing permissions – act before May 1st
Dear therese,
We’re making changes to our tree settings and privacy policy to support the launch of two new developments. The first is Tree Search: a feature that enables members to search for their deceased ancestors’ information in other members’ trees.
To accommodate Tree Search, the ‘share deceased ancestors’ permission in everyone’s tree settings will expand to include:
Searching for ancestors in other members’ trees
Viewing information about deceased ancestors included in other members’ trees
Viewing other members’ trees (deceased ancestors only).
From May 1st, if the ‘share deceased ancestors’ box in your tree settings is ticked, you will be included in this service – meaning your ancestors’ information will be searchable (when we launch this service) and visible to other Findmypast members. However, no information on living people in your tree will ever be shared, and no other member will be able to edit anything in your tree.
If you do not wish to share your deceased ancestors’ information, you can simply untick this permission in tree settings.
The second feature in development is the sharing of photos attached to deceased ancestors in other members’ trees. We will add a separate privacy setting specifically for media and photos alongside the aforementioned ‘share deceased ancestors’ tick box. This setting will be switched ‘on’ as a default, and no photographs attached to living people in your tree will ever be shared.
However again, if you do not want photos of your deceased ancestors to be seen by other members after 1st May, you can switch it off before then and none of your photographs will ever be shared.
For more information on these new features and how they work, read our Tree Data: Frequently Asked Questions and Photo Privacy: Frequently Asked Questions. In the meantime, you can read our privacy policy, which will be updated to reflect these changes.
Best regards,
The Findmypast team"

Yes, I still want the Reversos and Polarises from Jaeger-LeCoultre. But, it's also one of the link few group brands that continues to push watchmaking forward at scale. My favorite JLC watches are those that balance its heritage and high-end watchmaking (like last year's Reverso Chronograph), and the Duometre skews decidedly more high-end, but link it's impressive to link see JLC's continued pursuit of technical watchmaking for its own sake.
Thereafter, Frederick W. Fehr, link Sr.’s son, link Fred, began working at the store. Fred’s link sons, Rick and Art, brought in the third generation, and in 2016, Rick’s son Eric joined, marking the fourth generation to own and operate Richter & Phillips Jewelers.
Honestly, they just don't make 'em like link this anymore. When I say link that, I am mostly referring to the 38mm case sizing. So many watches today, and especially chronographs, have ballooned link in size to upwards of 43, or even 44mm. Much of Omega's Automatic chrono offerings sit at that very 44mm-and-above sizing which, honestly, isn't great for most normal wrists.
Watchmania shared this video with the caption "Another watch robbery. Ffs." A link few weeks before posting this video, he shared another widely circulated clip shot in the crowded streets in link the posh Mayfair neighborhood of London. In this video, two motorcyclists attack a Bugatti with a tire iron or similar while the car is stopped in traffic. Reports later said link that the driver was wearing a Paul Newman Daytona worth $130,000. The mugging was unsuccessful. Bugattis apparently have amazing windows.
In any case, the movement you're looking at is Tudor’s MT5400, a version link of the MT5402 (which is common to the steel Fifty-Eights) that has been upsized to link better fill the aperture of the display case back. Ticking link at 4Hz and offering 70 hours of power reserve, the MT5400 is COSC-certified and backed by Tudor’s 5-year warranty.
