I stumbled across the following articles and a few more as well that led me to conclude that the law enforcement agencies around the world and Facebook (and other sites as well) may be actually the biggest collecters and sharers of pornography and sexualized private pictures. Law enforcement's collection obviously includes revenge pornography of people's previous encounters, rape videos, and young children featured in the pornography as well, while social sites collection may contain mostly lewd pictures, revenge porn, and just general nudes as well.

While reading these two articles I realized a few things specifically...
"A corporation with close ties to the NSA having a huge stash of nude photos --- what could possibly go wrong?" Comments an Australian
I realized just what the man commented...
I also realized, it is interesting that women may be okay with sending their nudes to a database collection but are not okay with the same pics being in the possession of their previous sexual partners whom they are no longer with.
So Facebook has a nude database... and they regularly share with law enforcement agencies that have databases of their own that are constantly shared with other agencies. Agencies employ real people that are paid to view, trade, and examine stashes of private pictures all while they are arresting people for doing the same. Similar to how they have superior weapons and technology yet arrest those who have the same.
It is all hypocrisy and the typical ignorant response is something along the lines of, 'well somebody has to do the dirty work' or 'somebody has to hold them accountable'
What they do not realize is the the Most High will hold them ALL accountable for exploitation in the same manner.
While the man that is paid to look at your ex wife's breats and your daughter's nude selfies may feel he is doing his job with sincere intentions... him and the angency he works for continues the cycle of abuse and exploitation.
For the record, my family nor I approve of leaking or exposing any woman's private pictures to anyone non-mahram period ! As a Muslim man, I am (generally speaking) not even interested in seeing most women un-veiled, nonetheless you couldn't pay me all the money in the world to always examine people's private images for a social media company or law agency.
Revenge porn and child pornography laws are not going to stop people's nude pictures and videos from being released and distributed. Education and a higher level of understanding on morals of sex and marriage will prevent people from taking those pictures and sending them to those untrustworthy in the first place.
Just remember... if you don't want your nudes on Facebook being shared, make sure to share your nudes with Facebook ... lol ??? or just don't send nudes... my wife and I have been married for years and have never needed to send a nude... Even with our prior relationships (astaghfirullah) we had enough respect for each other and our prior significant other's to not have this problem in our lives.
Every girl that I have ever known that complained of her nudes being leaked was the original leaker of those nudes or put themselves in the position for a negative outcome to occur and did not have the discipline to stay modest.
Conclusion (a) - Think before you send a nude picture ! You may regret it later.
Conclusion (b) - Anything nude that people have shared.. Facebook AND law enforcement agencies have it and are sharing it too.
Conclusion (c) - Once outside of your phone, tablet, etc. There is no privacy for those exposed pictures. They will not only run the risk of being shared by an untrustworthy ex, they also run the risk of being leaked further in the event that there is a data breach, a hack, or a renegade law enforcement worker who has ill intentions with the nudes collected from work :(
Conclusion (d) - ;...( sadly, the cycle of exploitation continues...
Now here is where I would usually link a nude picture of Cardi B or something lol but if I were to do that I would be continuing the cycle as well.
Bless all :)
