Strange... Among all of my google accounts I have checked and NOTHING was automagically shared. My pictures must suck or I did NOT do:
Share a photo
On your computer, open Google Maps.
In the top left, click Menu Menu and then Your contributions.
Choose Photos.
Find the photo you’d like to share.

- arturhoo 8y agoAs a counter point, I woke up today to this weird email: https://bit.ly/2wMpPL3 https://bit.ly/2wMpPL3 Picture is from 2011 and was originally hosted on Picasa (but I'm pretty certain it was never shared publicly) and I don't have a Google Plus account. If I go to the picture itself on Photos, there's no sharing/privacy controls, so I'd assume it is private. The wording on the email makes it even worse, as if I had intentionally done something overnight to share them on Maps.
- crottypeter 8y agoPerhaps your google account has been compromised?
- arturhoo 8y agoI can't find any evidence that it has been. I use a long and strong password and have 2-step-verification enabled in my account. I haven't received any new account activity emails and the I don't see anything suspicious on myaccount.google.com As far as I remember, I've never used Panoramio (as a comment above suggests to be the cause). I'd agree that this seems limited to some specific circumstances.
