I Can Stalk U: New Site Posts Exacts Locations of Twitter Users Posting Geotagged Photos Remember PleaseRobMe.com? The website, which warned of the dangers in sharing your physical location online, now has a successor called I Can Stalk U. While PleaseRobMe (now shuttered) focused on how publicly broadcasting your location could alert criminals to an empty house nearby, ideal for burglarizing, the new site aims to raise awareness about the dangers of geo-tagged photos, specifically the ones shared from your smartphone to social networks like Twitter. "Many people may be unaware that lots of smartphones geo-tag photos," explains security researcher Graham Cluley, who revealed the site via blog post today. The site itself quietly launched a few months ago to little fanfare. Geotagging, the process of adding geographical information to media files like photos and videos, is a feature commonly turned on by default in many of today's smartphones, including Apple's iPhone.

The metadata in images is often retained by default by desktop image processing software and many online photo storage websites.

However, most modern digital cameras do not automatically add geolocation (Latitude and Longitude) metadata to pictures. There is a large exception to this rule: Smartphones. Most people don't realize that the action of automatic geotagging takes place on their smart phones, either because it is enabled by default, not exposed the user as an option, or was asked and then forgotten.

First off, think of what your friends will say. Second, imagine what your customers will say when they read about it online and the headline reads, “Drunk Twit Gets Sued For Tweets.” Worst of all, you could lose your privilege to Tweet under Twitter’s Terms of Service. So how do you avoid this? 1. Remember when your mother told you not to say anything if you didn’t have anything nice to say. 2. I will be the first to admit that I’ve experienced what is known as “Twitter Rage.” Sometimes I lash out at the offender with a particularly pointed public tweet.

Facebook Places & Privacy: Both Real & Overblown Concerns Facebook launched its mobile location feature last week, called Places, and just as the company deserves - there was intense scrutiny of the new feature's privacy settings.
