You can't make this shit up:

> Like the hacks that had come before it, Higinio released the information in a web page which contained some ASCII art, a video, and a picture of Kylie from the neck down holding a sign that said "PwNd by wOrmer & CabinCr3w <3 u BiTch's!" The picture was taken with Kylie's iPhone and she had location services turned on. This meant that location data was embedded in every picture she took.

OPSEC is hard. EXIF GPS from the image.

GPS Latitude Reference {0x01} = south latitude (S) GPS Latitude {0x02} = 37/1,5142/100,0/1 [degrees, minutes, seconds] ===> 37° 51.42′ == 37.857° GPS Longitude Reference {0x03} = east longitude (E) GPS Longitude {0x04} = 145/1,1502/100,0/1 [degrees, minutes, seconds] ===> 145° 15.02′ == 145.250333°

It's interesting to be reminded in little ways of the importance (and all-or-nothing nature) of opsec. It's something most of us don't really think about, since we tend not to consider ourselves as having a reason for it.

Funny. I took the opposite conclusion. Opsec is an impossibility. Might as well plaster your real name over everything, if it keeps you honest.
