@SmallBizGeekUK @Andrew_Wyld @DickPicLocator I would presume so. I plan to do some testing with different networks over the next couple of days.
Okay you would not believe the corners of the web a @DickPicLocator creation reveals, but this is one of my faves: dontbeadick.se/#start
To be clear, I will not be doing the IKnowWhereYourCatLives version of the @DickPicLocator. iknowwhereyourcatlives.com

@SmallBizGeekUK @Andrew_Wyld @DickPicLocator Tru dat. 👍 Just need to confirm if there's any EXIF info to retrieve.

@Andrew_Wyld @DickPicLocator Interesting. Would be crazy if I choose not to share location when I share the photo on Instagram but it's still GPS-tagged online.
Sooner or later people will begin to realize the copy is the USP of this site. Because the tool is already on your phone. No, really. x.com/axbom/status/8…
For example, go into the photo library on an iPhone and choose to see details of the photo. Your photo is neatly placed on a map.
Any photo you send to someone else or that you receive, you can do this with. The only prerequisite is that the photo is tagged.
Most phones tag your photo with GPS coordinates whether you like it or not. It's a default setting that people do not know to opt out of.
The real culprits, alas, are the phone and software manufacturers who keep most people in the dark about what is shared in a photo.

@Andrew_Wyld @DickPicLocator Good. The point of this experiment is to raise these types of questions. The functionality is already built into most smartphones but >
@Andrew_Wyld @DickPicLocator > most people seem unaware. If you download a photo to an iPhone for example and ask to see details for a photo, you see it on a map.
@Andrew_Wyld @DickPicLocator For Instagram these are "scraped out" as you put it, because you can not download Instagram photos. On the other hand, people tend to share>
@Andrew_Wyld @DickPicLocator > location on Instagram anyway.
@Andrew_Wyld @DickPicLocator What I need to check is to see what happens if you share an Instagram photo to Facebook and someone downloads from there.
@Andrew_Wyld @DickPicLocator But the issue of locating random innocent social media users is already an issue, but there's a huge lack of awareness.

@Konventionen @DickPicLocator Är det i grunden inte positivt om folk lär sig det? Möjligheten att positionera bilder med vilken telefon som helst kvarstår.

@Konventionen @DickPicLocator Tror du att de kommer ändra sitt beteende pga denna webbsida? T ex välja att ta bort metadata från bilder innan de laddas upp?

@Konventionen @DickPicLocator Kan man ladda ner bilderna på Tinder?

@Konventionen @DickPicLocator Min tes är att killarna lägger mer tid att ta reda på GPS-koordinater ändå. Men jag förstår absolut hur du tänker.
@Konventionen @DickPicLocator Ökad medvetenhet hos alla om hur lätt det är att fastställa position tror jag i grunden är för det bästa.

@Konventionen @DickPicLocator Den vet förstås inte skillnaden, koordinater går ju alltid att hitta i bilder. Det är absolut något som kan missbrukas, som allt annat. :/

@ryskroulette Haha. Jag raderat allt omgående :)

@gkionify @DickPicLocator Totally ok! 😂 But I made the form so you can specify if it's an actual dick pic or not.
@gkionify @DickPicLocator Thanks :)

@Hilaryonline @DickPicLocator damnit!! I've been correcting that all over. 😀 Thanks!
@Hilaryonline @DickPicLocator Fixed it, but it will probably take a while before it propagates everywhere...
If you like the idea, do help me spread the word. x.com/axbom/status/8…
