Your children are at risk! GPS data can be stored with every smartphone photograph you or your child takes. While swimming, while camping, while driving down the road, while playing in their bedroom. Many of these photos are posted online with no second thought as to what they contain. GPS mapping from photographs is SUPER EASY. Do you want perpetrators to know where your children are immediately after sharing a photo? www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2vARzvWxwYHow to turn off GPS location services: In iOS 6: Settings>Privacy>Location Services>Camera:Off In iOS 5: Settings>General>Location Services>Camera:Off In Android v2.x: Camera>Menu>gearIcon(Settings)>Geo-Tag photos:Off Really, this is old news, but we forget.
