posting pix online?
« on: February 27, 2011, 10:38:34 AM »
Take a look at the following news video. I have not done anything to confirm but it sounds pretty viable and a bit scary. Folks who like to post pis of nice "shiney" items like firearms, jewelry, expensive toys might want to check on it.

If you have a gps in your phone and camera might want to disable the feature for pix.

Adam Savage one of the hosts of mythbusters posted a picture once saying "off to work" there was gps enabled and thieves went to that location and broke into his house.  Also every single one of his fans knew where he lived so he had to move.
