It's the user (I tested with 2 friends to verify). Here's a scenario we talked about in my house: Once potential problem: friends-of-friends. A friend-of-friend comments on something your mutual friend put out, you then comment, the first friend (whom you don't know) can use this trick to ballpark your location.
- harshpotatoes 16y agoRight. But you're all talking to each other. It seems to me this same info would still be available to everyone if you were emailing each other. I don't really see this one as a huge security risk...
- natrius 16y agoDid you test the problem you described? If it works, this is the only potential flaw I see. Including IP addresses with messages still doesn't seem like a bad thing regardless.
