Happy Geofence Friday! You might have heard, earlier this week, Flickr rolled out a new feature for Geotag privacy called Geofences.
I'm a big fan of geotagging, except when it's a personal residence. With Geofences, we can now set who can see where our photos are geotagged.
That's a good thing, except if downloading of the original file is enabled, then the EXIF data wll be embedded in the original file along with geotagging if that was turned on when the photo was taken.
Ever since someone took one of my pictures on Flickr without my permission, inserted a giant gorilla complete with some choice body parts exposed, then posted it on Flickr, I have disabled downloading of my pictures on this stream. My stream for real estate, Homes and Dreams, those pictures are more generic and are in Creative Commons, but with no Geotag info. I manually Geotag my pictures here on Flickr.
All I'm saying is that there still are some creeps and lurkers out there since I did a rant post on Geotagging last year.
. . .
Please!! NO Awards or Large Graphics...Group Buddy Icons are OK. Also, please do not insert your own pictures in your comments on my stream unless specifically requested. Thank You!
