Abstract: The evolution of ICT technologies and the increasing difference between the technological and social development specified the guideline of the research written in this paper. From the perspective of privacy, one of the most neglected technology is geotagging. Through a survey and technological examinations, this paper describes the dangers from several aspects. These are: examination of file formats, processing images with mobile and PC applications, using offline and cloud applications, measuring user geotagging-consciousness and user behaviour. Dangers were found both on the technological and also on the user side: the technology is more advanced than the awareness of users. The results are pretty surprising, in spite of bad results that were expected. Something must be undertaken urgently to increase the technological awareness of the users.
