If US army botany enthusiasts post a load of location data online on their favourite botany app, is that the app’s fault?
I’d say it’s the soldier and US army who are at fault.
- websiteapi 10mo agoYes, if the botany app shares sensitive information like their exact location and possibly home/workplace then the app is to blame if it allows children and even adults to publish such information without explicit share-with-world opt in design.
- lostlogin 10mo agoAs a Strava user, it’s blindingly obvious that’s it’s sharing location data and easy to turn off. But if you’re doing some secret squirrel shit, are soldiers really allowed to use random location tracking apps from random companies?
