I am not sure but I think that all cameras in cell phones have a dohicky that encodes location and date of the photo which can be decoded by people with the right software. Sort of like secret directions to the store.

Heh, this is an ancient 2001 Kodak DX3900 Easy-Share 3.1-MP, w/ date-time stamp turned-off. My cellphone is an ancient 2006 Nokia 6060 clamshell w/ no camera or video. I think I’m okay as long as I use those relics.

All digital cameras do this. Its called metadata and the software isnt expensive.
