I was just looking through my Photobucket account and realized (if uploaded from an iPhone), there is a box next to the photo you're looking at, that tells you where that photo was taken, it even pulls up a map with an arrow pointing at the exact location you took the photo. So if you took a photo of something in your house, then the map would point directly at your house (it did on my account anyway).
I strongly recommend you change the settings in your Photobucket account, so it doesn't show locations.
Go to "Account Settings" (it's in a drop-down box, when you hold your mouse over your account name), click on "Privacy" and you will see a lot of ticked boxes, untick the box that says
"Show where my photos were taken"
and tick the box that says
"When I upload, permanently remove information about where my photos were taken"
It's getting to easy to find out where people live these days, and this Photobucket thing, is like saying, "look what i have, here's directions to where it's being kept".
