One of my friends has already added "Home" onto her places thing, so now her 300 friends know exactly where she lives Not good if she looses her phone or one of her friends does

I dunno, I'd imagine he's pretty much got us, whatever way you look at it.
Turn your phone on, 'they' know where you are,
Walk down the street, they have you on several CCTV set ups,
Drive your car, anpr cameras are now everywhere, so 'they' know.


Even of you stay in your house, you only have to go on google to see exactly what that house looks like etc. Lol
So if that's the few things 'they' let us know about, Id imagine it would be fairly worrying to see how much 'they' actually can see

If you've got nothing to hide then you've nothing to fear from 'them'. I'm sure no-ones actually interested in my pleasantly mundane life.
