       OK, this is genuinely scary. It's a picture of me, aged 5. It was taken in 1960. It was scanned and uploaded to Google Photos in 2002. No one has told Google where it was taken. But the map, bottom right, is correct.Obviously, in 1960, my father's pre-war Exakta camera did not have GPS. Could you identify, from that picture, exactly where it was taken?Google can.

       If that isn't startling enough, try this one. This one shows a cat crossing a dirt track, with a dry-stone dike behind it. Above the dike, trees of a small spruce plantation can be seen.The picture was taken in about 1966. I think by me with a box brownie -- a very cheap, primitive camera.Again, the location shown is correct within 50 metres. HOW?

       Interestingly, this picture of my little sister and her cat -- taken only a few minutes before or after the other cat photo, with the same camera, on the same roll of film -- is not geolocated. There's nothing visible over the dike in this one.

       @simon_brooke Google has collected geolocated images of pretty much the entire Earth as degenerates go around and take photos of absolutely everything and since demon rectangle, all of them are geolocated.The backgrounds can then be correlated to the geolocated image.

       @Suiseiseki @simon_brooke This guy has clearly never witnessed weaponised autism before, this sort of thing happens all the time manually, it's not surprising that jewgle have managed to put it in a computer. Like, all those images include shots of the sky! You can do so much with just that and a timestamp!
