People who use the geo-services such as Foursquare or Gowalla, unaware of the unwritten rules - you can not Chekina home to the outside can not be understood when you are at home and when you are not there. Anyway, the house is the house, and to what strangers know where you live.

This kid is constantly all will tell about where you post. Only once allowing him to determine the location, you will discover the continuous transfer of your current location.

Behaves exactly the same as all his brothers - just allow, distribute geo-tagging, and after uglyadite the constant leak in privacy.
And what about the others?
All the customer has its own policy for distribution of your geo-information. For example, HootSuite It seemed to me the most paranoid. Neither the version for the iPhone, any Android-version of it directly does not transmit your data, and just trying to stick to the process of Foursquare, having passed all the issues of privacy to it. And that is probably correct. There is the cornerstone of the functioning of the service.
And here Seesmic for Android itself will not tell you where ever. Only by pressing a separate button for each tweet, you pass geo-tag or a link to your location in Google Maps.
I have under the hood?
Understand pass you geo-tag each tweet or not is very simple. You should look to your own tweets. Label the pictures below say that every tweet gives besides what you've written, "I am here!" Catch me if you can :)
And if you want to guarantee yourself neperedavanie geo-tagging your Twi-customers simply turn permission to use geo-service to your Android phone or separately for each application on your iPhone.
