Wow I'm stunned....

..sharing your routes exposes where you live.

Publishing you birthdays, pets names and mothers details on Social media means many people can hack in to your accounts.

Telling your 97,000 "friends" that you are going away for two weeks and could someone pop round from time to time to check on it, may lead to an increased chance of it being broken into.

A little less attention whoring and you may be a little safer.
