Saw this earlier.
Gist of it;
Don’t take a picture with your “smart phone” and upload it anywhere! There are tags within the file that disclose exactly where you were when you took the picture.

Important!

I don’t know. I actually like Michael Yon’s site a lot, but I guess he’s searching for hits like everyone else!
