Great, now with that info, all I need to have is access to your phone via a trojan, and I can go rip you off while you're on vacation (remember the trojan gave me access, I know your address, or I'm perhaps someone you've befriended online with less-than-honorable intentions).

See how easy it is to "enable" bad shit to happen by simply leaving leaky info lying about?

If someone puts two and two together, perhaps with a geo-tagged image you shared online, you're hosed.

I'm not that stupid, but many are.
