Just in case anyone here uses Instagram: switch off its access to your location in your mobile settings, not just within Instagram. It seems its map privacy settings aren't working correctly.

There's a new Insta map functionality that pinpoints exactly where you are. (Not at all dodgy.) It's just been rolled out US-wide, but I wouldn't put it past them to do this in the UK, too.

And while you're at it, revoke other apps' access to your location unless they're essential.

📱 iMyFone claims to help recover lost data and unlock devices, but it requires deep access to your device and sensitive info. Based in China, its software lacks transparency and clear privacy guarantees.

⚠️ Risks: data exposure, unauthorized access, potential leaks, and unclear data handling.

🛡️ Use open-source tools when possible, avoid public computers for recovery, and disable cloud backups during the process. Protect your privacy by staying cautious.
