I guess you value your privacy. I guess it's cultural thing (Europeans and Germans in particular seem to be keen on protecting their privacy), or an age thing.

I can see the upside of having people aware of where I'm currently located, and I don't really see any downside. It's not like I'm a superstar, and Paparazzi's are going to hunt me down.....

I think for the gals the story is different, even when not a superstar ;-)
Shhhhh ;-)
Rocky as a Falcons icon.

The world is going to hell.
