What will happen to all private photo albums,  if module goes disabled (or removed)? Do they become publically available, or disappear?

Ilja, if you remove or deactivate the plugin - all private photos will become public and be available for all users.

Ouch... it seems to be a serious privacy breach. If for example for some reason the plugin has to be deactivated (for example if incompatible with newer oxwall version or other plugin), or due to critical bug in the plugin itself.

I'd be really appreaciated to take this into a note and offer any solution in near future. As users rely on this plugin, they may upload private sensitive photos. This shouldn't be exposed to public, otherwise it could be a very serious damage to reputation.
