I just sent the link to my family.
I have never owned a cell phone. My technology is a decade old and as
long as it works I'll keep using it.
A great public service, Joe2007. Thank you.

It would seem that most of the newer smart phones and digital cameras have this internal GPS feature that geotags photos automatically. Luckily for me my inexpensive digital camera purchased five years ago does not appear to be impacted. Still I'm sure there a substantial number of people out there that are unaware of this.
