Tracking Address Through Photos on Facebook...

[teenage_parent]

hi, i haven't been here a while.

just want to ask if anyone is interested in testing a VPN (virtual private network).

you may know by now that your identities and exact addresses can be hacked through the photos you post on facebook or anyone online. a VPN will protect your from it.

we're giving away 1 year free access to a vpn, just need you to give me a feedback on its performance.

let me know if anyone's interested

A VPN will not stop the geolocation data that gets embedded into a pictures EXIF data from being posted... you have to strip the data from the photo before posting if you want it gone.

do you want to test it?

I don't need to test the VPN in order to make my photo's safe. To remove the geolocation tags that can be embedded in your photos before you post them you can use Windows, which has the ability to remove this information built in. Select a photo or group of photos in Windows Explorer, right-click on them, and hit Properties. Under the Details tab, you'll find a link (near the bottom of the window) that says "Remove Properties and Personal Information". Click that, and hit OK in the window that comes up. You'll notice that you'll have a copy of each photo in that same folder. The copied photos will be the one with clean data, which are safe to share with your friends on Twitter, Facebook, or other places on the web.
