Well, I hope this doesn't surprise anyone. I'm running under the assumption that people who use Foursquare and other such geolocation services are fully aware that they can be used to find out where they've been. If that assumption is false, I think I'm going to become a hermit.

Well, it does other stuff like mine pictures for meta tags, the privacy implications of which wouldn't be obvious to a non-techie.

This is awesome. Kinda scary for you guys that use geolocation with everything though. I personally try to avoid it.

Geo-tagging your photos is kinda cool, and it's a feature that I would find interesting if I had a device that supported it, but I would make _sure_ to strip those tags before publishing the photos anywhere.

Ah, you're quite right. Then maybe this will bring broader attention to their implications.
