Shark BlackleI don't want to be alarmist, but google lens is good enough that it can help dox you. all it takes is for a building in the background of a photo to have been listed on zillow, then google lens might be able to find it given that section of the pic
there is a selection bias because I picked this building since it was already on zillow, but the fact that this works consistently is worrisome
one of the buildings visible from my balcony is susceptible to this 😟

nev@SuricrasiaOnline kind of reminds me of how some researchers found the top domains a machine learning image generator thing was trained on, and one of the top ones was pinimg.com (Pinterest's CDN URL). i think at this point every image that's ever been on the internet has probably been scraped for pinterest.
