BEWARE! Bike photos with Smart Phones

[Beamer]

[quote author=porkies link=1341487812/7#7 date=1341497400]another similiar one is people who check in on FB to places i.e their home and their cover photo is off the bike, google image search for most bikes will bring back a couple of FB hits, good warning tho Scotty [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

And on FB they tell everyone when they are going on holiday ;D[/quote]

If someone wants to take my bike out of my garage, they've got no change as they would have to move the suitcase full of tenners, the fine art and the pile of diamonds just to get to it ;D

I think you're right - in recent years there appears to be a movement by large corporations - banks & mobile phone companies spring to mind - to take financial advantage of the general populations lack of interest in small print - and understanding of what can be done with small snippets of personal information...

How often does you bill come to more than you expected - only to be pointed to some small print if you query it..? That's no accident - they have teams of people whos only function in the company - is how to chisel an extra 50 quid out of each of its customers every year by falling foul of small print...

Apparently the old boss of Nokia didn't let anyone in his family have a mobile phone, himself included.
I leave mine at home more and more often now, if I didn't need it for work I would bin it. I wish they had never been invented
