I think one of his main points is that he explicitly indicated not to collect that data, and the FB app itself indicates that the functionality is 'switched off'. Also:
"I suggested to them that this data is used for advertising purposes, and that this is “regardless of the privacy settings selected by the user within the Facebook/Instagram app on their phones.” Facebook told me it was fine to proceed with those assumptions." FB stance seems to be that the user has the option to strip EXIF data before uploading to FB. On the same token, can't strip your IP, guess that means a proxy. |

Which is pretty poor. I'd be interesting to see what twitter, tiktok and snap do with similar data.
Although people seem pretty chilled with other companies doing it. We already know google indexes by location. That's how they do the real time busyness graphs.
