I’m OK, I have a mobile phone, not a cell phone.

Cheers,

I sense scares being mongered.

Not watching the video, the words around it are too hysterical. Is it saying you need to turn off geotagging by any chance?

synopsis please same reasons as Gofasterstripes.

that is legitimately terrifying

Thats tomorrows Daily Wail headline sorted .

Where’s that thread about people you instantly dislike for no good reason? I have a new entry – Russ Ptatohead or whatever his name was. Lasted about 2 seconds of him and that was it.

synopsis please same reasons as Gofasterstripes.

If you have a cell phone, then paedophiles are hiding under your bed.

I’m presuming its tinfoil hat time? Sinister agents of the state are tracking my every move….

yes

I got as far as
Hackers can track down you and your kids
and shit myself so much that I smashed my iPhone with a hammer and ran.

To be fair, geotagging/privacy issues are a legitimate concern that some people probably are not aware of.

The links text/video is just very Brasseye in it’s execution.

Thank goodness there were no cell phones or paedophiles when I was a kid.

Synopsis – by looking at the Exif metadata in the image you can work out where I was when I took this picture

aye– it was all flagged up by semaphore–

Can I some out from under my desk yet? I’ve eaten my iphone

When I take a photo, even in just the regular camera app, Google Goggles has a go at trying to figure out what it is. Presumably it uploads the photo to 4 different Google datacentres which run an algorithm on virtualised hardware spread across 16 different CPUs, intercepted by the NSA during the upload, download and every communication in between, all so it can tag my bike with ‘Money Pit’

Wow, I thought it was only morons FaceBook ‘friends’ who posted carp like that

That’s not your desk, Binners.

And that’s not a phone you’re eating.

lol exif data, it’s been around for years and its well known about. there are even tool around that can take folders of pictures and plot the exif data across devices and map it onto google maps.

That’s the way things are on the Island, PMJ!

I speak from experience.

I’m normally said man. 😈

what a complete crock of shite.

I must immediately share this with all friends!!!! Now!!!

I reckon cars are equally as bad. They give paedophiles the means to drive around areas looking for houses with kids playing outside them.

Damn – even feet – I mean then they can walk around parks and the like looking at the children playing there.

No the eyes THE EYES, they allow them to see.

Problem solved – blind all males over the age of 10 – that’ll learn ’em…

I read an article a while back that said something along the lines of Apple being apple to freeze your camera in certain areas- e.g. around important government buildings or sensitive areas.

Edit: Here it is.. http://www.infowars.com/apple-granted-patent-to-disable-cameras-according-to-location/

Should add that it dosen’t bother me, whether its true or not.

WTF? Thats just a patent on the idea, no-ones actually using it. Apple probably filed it as a form of patent trolling to stop someone else doing it.

Geotagging? Pah, the real paedos do it with smoke signals

Safe in the knowledge that nobody will ever know when and where I took this photo:

(it’s not my photo, it’s from Time Out)

Thats the best yet, I think Jamie

my new android phone knows where I work

absolutely no clue where it picked it up from

obviously I have input my work address on something, I just don’t know where

Needs Rod Hull up there fixing the aerial, Jamie….

I’ve eaten my iphone

Binners…i would have happily hit it with a hammer for you first…make it easier to chew.. 😉

You fool! You’ll be tracked for life!

……or until the battery dies in 5 minutes!

lol, I thought this kind of paranoia died out in the 70s when everyone stopped taking acid…
