And a lot of you post the photos but put an emoji sticker over the kid's face or whatever: that is really, really, really not sufficient to prevent people from doing things with them you do not want to know about. Do not post photos of your kids online, period.

I am one of those people who is *really, really good* at identifying exactly where and when a photo was taken from basic context clues (a skill I developed for human rights research and journalism purposes).
Trust me on this, don’t post photos of your kids on the public internet.

People can absolutely determine the exact location of an image by analyzing lighting, shadows, landmarks, or natural elements in the background. The amount of data needed to identify someone—or even their current location—is shockingly small. Any privacy book worth it's salt explains this.
