First of all, 90% of my photos are of my dogs. The rest are wedding photos, with a few pictures of my husband and I doing Krav Maga or shooting guns.<\/p>\n

I have been paying attention to what I post\u00a0lately, and what someone might gather from me. I will be honest and say that I haven’t seen any correlation with some of the ads I’ve seen and my photos, but I know there is a lot of information that could be gathered from my photos about myself and my husband. I have selected a few photos and would not only like to point out how adorable my dogs are, but also what may be relevant to someone studying\/researching Facebook photo<\/p>\n

\"1935690_10207545325847100_4504552767807860985_n\"<\/a>This is Billy. He normally goes by Peewee. To the left is him and his big sister, Banshee. I chose this photo because as I mentioned, most of my photos are of my pets. This is relevant because someone might utilize the large quantity of dog photos to target me for pet supplies, and extra pe\"12592707_10207721364647960_2080418069550047169_n\"<\/a>t crap that I don’t need. I do look up a lot of cute dog stuff on Etsy, and I am a HUGE sucker for cute dog accessories. Someone who posts as much about their dogs as I do would probably fall for advertising of cute dog accessories or donating to an animal charity. I may also be more inclined to click\/respond to charity events\/adoption events for dogs. The sheer volume of dog pictures probably tells people that I spend a lot of time on facebook as well, but who doesn’t<\/p>\n

Here is another photo that is usually my profile picture. This is my husband and myself at my wedding. What is interesting to me about this is I got more ads on my facebook about wedding planning AFTER my wedding than I did before. Probably because I posted a lot about my wedding\/photos of it after. This image (as well as the others on my page) probably would target me and potentially my husband who is tagged in the photo for formal wear. I asked him about the ads on his facebook, and apparently he is getting a lot of advertisements ab\"11694026_10206450322632704_7245575355827142222_n\"<\/a>out “being a dad”, adoptions, or baby items. We don’t currently have children, but I have been getting those, too, and I can’t help but wonder if we are being targeted because generally that is the next step after marriage. And if it is honesty hour, I have to be honest that I do click on those links and it has made me think a lot about having children. I have also bookmarked a lot of these pages on my browser, too. Good job, Facebook!<\/p>\n

My husband and I also have just gotten into guns recently, and have been posting photos of us going to the range. Photos like these might open us both up to a lot of things. I have tagged this photo of my husband, so it would affect him, as well. Everything from gun accessories, ranges, etc., could target him. Also, the range we went to in this photo was in Fuquay, and I noticed that the photo says “Fuquay-Varina” in the caption. I never even checked us into this place, but somehow my phone did. This can present more information to big data, as it can target location, interests, and him and I both.\u00a0\"12410561_10207639760967919_1145140271523570451_n\"<\/a>I suppose<\/p>\n

I’ve never thought about how much my photos can say about me, but when it comes to Facebook’s location sensing and the “tagging” feature, a picture is really worth a thousand words!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
