Next iPhone Will Track You /August 9, 2013 by Richard

Apple's new operating system for iPhones and iPads, iOS 7, will track your movements and save your "frequent locations". I recently downloaded iOS 7,4 to my iPhone and discovered that iPhone logs my complete movements. In order to change this new default setting:

Settings →
Privacy →
Location Services →
System Services (at the bottom) →
Frequent Locations

Frequent Locations feature that tracks your GPS coordinates to learn about places you visit often seemingly to give you suggestions of nearby places but I am finding it more PRISM-style than helpful.

Here are my latest movements, if you ask Apple...

As a photographer navigating the AI era, we are confronted with numerous fresh opportunities and, at the same time, potential challenges. The question looms: can we not only survive but also harness the full potential of these new possibilities, especially with the advent of mega digital cameras in this emerging photographic age?

Certainly, AI tools have enabled enthusiastic individuals to craft a diverse array of captivating artificial images. However, the question arises: can these creators truly be called photographers? In my view, the distinction lies in the ownership of photographs and the associated intellectual property rights. This consideration has made me considerably more discerning in terms of what and how I choose to publish my images.
