The flaw with this argument, is that it assumes all photos were knowingly uploaded to the internet and only contain a picture of the person who uploaded the photo.

There will be lots of people who do not even know their photo is on the internet. Ever been in a group photo taken by somebody else? Did the person who uploaded the photo collect consent from all individuals in the photo?
