Your concern is valid – but it’s based on a misunderstanding of what this project is and who it’s for. First of all, no one is forced to upload anything. If you’re not comfortable sharing your results, don’t. Simple.Its the same issue.
My question was never answered, for those who pay for testing, what benefits do we get? How does this benefit test payers? If anything, it increases our risk of getting caught for possession. You can argue that it may not be illegal in certain countries, but majority of the sales here are to people in which it is illegal in their country.
If you've not noticed, testing results also include a picture of the sample that was sent in.
We don't care about SEO or credibility, that increases risk.
We don't care if shops benefits, it's none of our business.
We also are not here to spoonfeed.
But for those who do share, the benefit is clear: collective knowledge. Every test made public helps dozens, sometimes hundreds, of others avoid scams, underdosed products, or dangerous contaminants. That’s a return on investment that goes far beyond money.
As for the risk – people who upload can blur labels, remove identifying info, or use intermediaries. The image isn’t a legal admission of possession; it’s documentation. There’s a difference.
And SEO? It’s not about clout – it’s about visibility. If test results stay buried in private chats and closed forums, they’re useless to everyone but a select few. This project is about open access, harm reduction, and long-term trust – not short-term fear.
