A Google Maps shortcut from hidden GPS photo data saved me hours of frustration
A picture says a thousand... spots?
A person who enjoys exploring cities alone found a helpful shortcut on Google Maps. They often go on solo adventures, but coordinating with friends can be chaotic.
The shortcut was discovered in GPS photo data. No further details are available about how it worked or what it did.
There is no apparent connection between this person's experience with Google Maps and a separate issue involving Google's data center plans in Finland. According to TechSpot, Google's local company in Finland, Tuike Finland Oy, began clearing forest for a new data center before completing the required environmental review, which has now been questioned by regulators.
