Pictures - GEOTAGS, and this forum!

**If not allowed here, please move!!**

Guys,

I'm sure most of you are aware, but when you post pictures of your new car, the GEOTAGs are often left within the data file of the picture. This means that anyone who downloads or saves a copy of your picture can easily find out where it was taken. If this was at your home, then you could become an easy target for theft.

Just a thought/heads up!!

Thanks for heads up , I turned off location services as well . Still, it pays to be very wary
