Facebook is at it again, releasing yet another feature that I never had the opportunity to politely opt out of: location sharing. When Facebook decided to withdraw efforts from its short-lived check-in service, Places, it quickly implemented a more passive location-sharing feature that doesn’t even have a name. It’s just there. And it’s creepy.
Now, every time you compose a post on a mobile device or desktop computer, you’ll see a light-gray location description in the lower left of the status box.
