Can I get a keylogger put on my computer or worse from clicking an image?

I mean I've heard of IP grabbers in images...

....maybe they could hide keyloggers or other nasty shit in there too?

I'm not tech illiterate.

no, unless for some reason the image viewer can execute code. this also assumes that you did not run a key logging script called hentai_image.bat by accident

That's what YOU think. Too bad for you, you don't know any better.

Theoretically, yes.

Practically its not that obvious it mostly depends flaw in specific image viewer and abusing it by embedding into image some sort of malicious command that downloads malware or is malware itself.

So technically in order to make someone infected by just clicking and image, that person must have specific version of specific image viewer and send im image with embedded keylogger specifically written to run by using that specific flaw and that means to many variables to make that type of attack easy to do outside laboratory environment.

Tl:DR - You can get infected by clicking on image but chances are so low its practically impossible.

Depends. You provided nothing no data to process.

Can he tho? Like, literally just see if he's bullshitting you.

Since you used the words "he says he can see" and not "he can see" I suspect he didn't prove it yet so I doubt he's saying the truth.

For an image click to infrct you with a virus, there has to be some extreme security loophole in some software you are using to display the pic, which is the type of shit every company that doesn't want to get sued into oblivion patches day one, and if such exploit isn't known about then real hackers sell them for billions on websites which trade in exploits, it wouldn't be wasted on a retard like you
