Here’s How U.S. Spies Will Find You Through Your Pics | Danger Room |
Wired.com
More and more digital cameras today don’t just take pictures but also
capture what is called metadata <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metadata> —
often referred to as data about data — that can include everything from when
the picture was taken to what kind of camera was used to where the it was
taken. This metadata, often stored in a format called
EXIF<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exif>,
can be used by different programs to understand different aspects of the
image — and also by intelligence analysts to understand different aspects of
the user who took it, and the people who are in it. Like who they are, what
they are doing, and where and when they did it.
