Geo guessing is related to open source intelligence techniques, and it’s pretty easy to get surprisingly good at it.
People who are good at it can take a picture of someone’s room and deduce enough about them (sometimes) to be able to get their name, address and phone number.
It being automatic is pretty cool, but you were already leaking the information to anyone interested.
