CYBER STALKING: GEOtags On Cellphones

Hey MAMAS – a word of caution today! Apparently, all cell phones made after 2005 have GPS tracking, “It’s usually latitude and longitude coordinates that can be used to be put into a mapping program to show exactly where you are,” said Lieutenant Dennis Lane from the New York Police Department’s Computer Crimes Squad.  So, MAMAS, anytime you or your KID-Os take a picture from your cell phone and “share” it on social media you can be tracked.  Super scary cyber “stranger danger” – so be careful about who, what and where you share personal info.

Please read info on How To Avoid The Potential Risks of GEOtagging.
