I wonder if this will eventually become a clause in insurance contracts: "If you broadcast publicly the fact that you aren't home, any subsequent robbery will not be covered." Hard to believe, but possible.
- younata 16y agouh. no. Because, if I so wished, I could post on FB places that I'm "at the movies with <whoever>".
- houseabsolute 16y agoI don't understand how this objection would defeat the clause in question?
- tmitchell 16y agoI assume he meant that if <whoever>'s house was robbed, that could be problematic. Could my insurance company penalize me if you broadcast my whereabouts?
- younata 16y agothe idea is, you can't effectively stop what other people post about you. Sure, you can elect to not post anything showing your location, but other people can also elect to post stuff showing their location, as well as information indicating that you are with them.
- houseabsolute 16y agoThat's why the clause would be, "If you broadcast publicly . . ." Obviously there'd be no way to enforce this if someone else broadcasted your location.
