  1. Re:Nothing compared to what they did before... on Facebook Says It Owns 'Book' · · Score: 1

    :)) True. They could place a decorated decagram shaped icon on their webpage with "Sued by Facebook" to gain notoriety...

  2. Re:Pictures can tell the future? on The Hidden Security Risk of Geotags · · Score: 2, Informative

    Agreed, the OP may have over-stretched what can be concluded from photographs alone. I think what they were getting at was using geo-tagged photographs and other evidence such as tweet posts and facebook status updates, and indeed advertising your GPS position could all be used to conclude you're on holiday, plus you've photographed where your house is and all of the nice stuff that's in it. However, unless you make a habbit of uploading all of this information to an entirely public domain I'm not entirely sure there's a danger of all this information getting into the wrong hands...
