When you take a pic with your iPhone, it records the location (via GPS) of where you took the picture and puts it in the exif data...

I just saw a thread on /b/ and they took this kids cupcake pics, and figured it was an iPhone pic, looked in the exif data, and posted his address...

So dont take pics at ur house on your iPhone and put them on the interwebs...

Yup, perfect solution for iPhone users. Say that to one and they'll think you're retarded.

you can say also "NO" when it asks if you want the photo to be located on a GPS map.

Almost all of my pictures are from public places anyways. Concerts, hockey games, flying, etc. I don't think I have anything to worry about.

Don't take a cell phone of any form if you're on the run

Oh and that is what exif rippers are for...

Also even heroine and absinthe are a better way to pass time than /b/

don't say that, some /b/tard wouldprobably swap /b/ for heroin

Spoiler (highlight to read):
and the heroin would be worse, tbh
