The Live Photo that initially launched on the iPhone 6s along with the force touch sensor makes iPhone 6s the center of attraction for most smartphone user in year 2016. While taking moving pictures (like those from Harry Potter) might seem fun and interesting, there is some privacy risk if you don’t know how to setup according to your privacy concern.

One user upload a live photo of a kid on Weibo online and someone managed to find her kid’s location and commented on her post. While the photo does not provide any pictorial detail of the location, this makes her extremely concern on how did other user manage to locate the children whereabout.

After conversation with the other user, it is known that the user who viewed the image purposely saved the image and hence able to see the location of the children whereabouts. She soon deleted her image from her Weibo.

This occurrence is somehow rare and only happens when you upload it to Weibo. Apple customer service suggest those who are concern with privacy should turn their location system off to prevent geotagging when capturing images.
