>If you don't want to post a photo, then don't post a photo.
Other people have posted photos of me without my consent, how am i meant to stop that?
If i posted photos 20 years ago when i was a dumb teenager i cant undo that, either
Those are still the consequences of your own actions. If someone is so desperate to find you, there are easier ways. GeoGuessr isn't exactly super hard. If privacy is so important to you, it's all down to personal responsibility.
But this here? This is just drama over nothing.
What’s the impact to you?
I had a stalker in the past. I feel more comfortable without him knowing where i live.
In general i have a strong need for privacy. Not having privacy is generally unsettling, in the same way that i close the door when using a toilet or having a shower. I am disturbed by people that don't seem to have an understanding of that concept.
Being able to locate people through photos is nothing new. Yes, AI made it more accessible, but it should've always been a part of your threat model.
