Geotagged Horse Photos Concern Owners
Geograph.org.uk hosts user-generated geotagged photos. The goal: to post a picture for every grid square of the Ordnance Survey maps of the British Isles and Ireland. One visitor has called the site “a thief’s shopping list.” The suggestion is that people are trespassing to get photos and once they are posted, the images provide an easy way for horse thieves to find targets. I suppose it’s the next logical step after StreetView and other services have been painted as dangerous to privacy, children and society.
