I turned off location services on all our devices after I saw this posted here before. Creepy stuff.

I didn't realize it was posted here before Jack but perhaps a sobering gentle reminder is necessary

A BIG yes to that Steve. You know how forums go. Lots of great stuff gets buried very quickly.

There should be simple privacy/parental control that makes sure photos don't get tagged. Having to turn off location services is not the solution.

Only one I could think of Amir. I'd love to have a better one. Location services is useful for so many other things.
