Share options for media items are shown even if an album is set to Can view media items = Album owner only.

This seems pointless and causes confusion as the share options can't really be used in any meaningful way as nobody except the owner can view those media items.

Suggested Fix
Don't show share options for media in albums that are set Can view media items = Album owner only
 
Automated triage: Design issue

Thank you for reporting this issue. Share options for media and albums are shown whatever the album's view setting, the same way share buttons appear on threads in restricted forums. They only depend on the site-wide share options, so hiding them for private content would be a change to how sharing is designed, not a fix to faulty behaviour.

This is an automated assessment. A member of staff may review and update it.
