Photo-sharing dangers you never thought about, plus how to get protected

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) September 16, 2010 -- Posting photos to social networks, online photo galleries, blogs, or web pages can be more dangerous than the average user guesses. These photos can contain geotags - GPS coordinates with the exact location of where the photo was taken - at home, your favorite park, a parking lot at work, etc.

Most modern smartphones and some cameras add geotags by default. Users have to turn off the geotag feature manually or risk revealing their whereabouts - to everyone who's watching.

Geotag Security software helps fight this problem. It scans a selected folder (or the whole computer) for images with geotags and removes them. Geotag Security is freeware and can be downloaded at http://www.geotagsecurity.com/download/.

The PRO version of Geotag Security can monitor folders or the whole computer for new photos with geotags and remove them automatically. Once installed and properly setup, it guarantees that users can upload any images they want without compromising their privacy by revealing location information.

Geotag Security PRO can be purchased for $19.95 for a family license (up to 5 installations within one household) at http://www.geotagsecurity.com/go-pro/.
