xfce4-screenshooter uploaded my screen to Imgur

I took a screenshot and it just sent it to Imgur without my permission. It just published it with all my apps and private files open.

Are you sane? Why is this even a feature? I hate you.

The imgur option has been removed on later versions, however, for it to be uploaded, you would have had to select imgur as an option. Plus, depending on the version, there would be a warning telling you to be careful.

I have version 1.11.1-1 and you have to specifically select the option to host on Imgur. Also you are given a link to access it and a link to delete it. There are no accidents.
