I was speaking to someone from DHS (not a tech) and he was telling me that there are applications that can "look" at a picture taken from a cell phone and can get the location of where the picture was taken. Is this true? If so, can someone provide more information? If this can be done, people posting pictures from their cell phones to social sites should be aware of this...
Google EXIF data. IMHO social networks should strip this data unless the user requested otherwise but not much can be done about the problem other than user education.
