Every girl should wear a chastity belt

BikelockFugitive I mean you can also just turn off the geotracking and you are probably good 99% of the time.

Angelina that would be the solution, so no problem

Yes, it is not hard to find a reasonable solution. The reason for my post was to raise awareness that there is a risk, because if someone is not aware, they will not take the simple precautions. But I am glad to see that the awareness seems higher than I expected.
In my experience turning GPS off totally is not that easy: there are loads of apps (route planning, weather, trip advisor, sports trackers, ...) that at least ask you to turn it on, or at worst don't even work without. But I do it anyway, and only turn it on when I need it, because that saves a lot of battery power. (But I have regularly noticed I forgot to turn it off again after using such an app.)
Of course another solution is not to share pictures ;-)

i always turn off gps too. my father knows where i am and no one else needs to know. 😉

Joh

carg because that saves a lot of battery power

I am not sure it makes a big difference. Mobil connection, WiFi and Bluetooth needs more. Also it need power how many Apps aworking in the background.

HHelen

Angelina in both cases it's mainly a meeting of many young people

Schools have more strict policies and control.

Angelina

HHelen Schools have more strict policies and control.

yes, ok that's true, but schools can only control it as long as the students are in the building.

Vanessa And they could look at the woman,to know if she looks like the picture;

maybe, but difficult if it is a photo without a face

Vanessa

Right.

youdontknowme Geotagging is usually the first feature I turn off on my phone camera.

Me too.

HHelen Nothing, really. It would be her choice.

Would you be disappointed?

Angelina well, he could say that about any other thing, it's just a question of whether they believe him.

I think it would be easy to believe him,in this case.

And they could look at the woman,to know if she looks like the picture;

HHelen

Vanessa Would you be disappointed?

Yes, because it would mean my fault.

Angelina but schools can only control it as long as the students are in the building

And they are being taken after.

I have to admit that I sometimes do wonder what the people in the forum actually look like

Avery

Max9 I have to admit that I sometimes do wonder what the people in the forum actually look like

Avery

Max9 I have to admit that I sometimes do wonder what the people in the forum actually look like

Angelina

Max9 I have to admit that I sometimes do wonder what the people in the forum actually look like

me too, but i have to protect my father a bit, so no photo of me

but i like your photo very much, you look very good 🙂

Max9

Avery thanks 🙂 the other one (close up) was maybe a big too high in resolution ... Which one do you think is better?

Avery

Max9 Which one do you think is better?

This one.

Max9

Angelina thanks 🙂

Vanessa

I prefer to not show pictures of me on the net too.

Angelina

Vanessa I prefer to not show pictures of me on the net too.

i would even do it, but the risk is too high for me and i agree with some that i would also like to know what the users look like, but i can understand that with this topic it is too risky

Angelina

HHelen

i don't quite understand this sentence. do you mean that they are picked up after school? if so, i have to tell you that i know it differently in germany.

Vanessa

HHelen Yes, because it would mean my fault.

Not angry at her,so,at least.

HHelen

Angelina do you mean that they are picked up after school?

Usually, yes.

Vanessa Not angry at her

It would be pointless.

Angelina

HHelen Usually, yes.

interesting, i have often read that it has something to do with the extremely high security needs of americans. here, even elementary school students often go to school alone or in small groups without parents.

but what am i talking about, i was driven myself for 12 years. 😂
