Did you read the article? It's a police blog - and has a list of things to consider doing when letting a place on AirBnB et al. Doesn't at all appear to be what you think it is. Certainly not just a 'new article'.

Are you sure? Specifically the list of things to consider seems to be something that gets posted over and over again, slightly modified for different contexts. There's been no lack of articles about burglars using social media sites to find empty homes, google "facebook burglary tips" (sans quotes) for lots of examples.

  Surprising amounts of downvotes (at least 5!), especially considering I was just trying to provide another point of view when ciaranm was straight up accusing fredley of not reading the article.
