So according to this article, the iPhone 4 contains an unencrypted file that it uses to record every location it’s ever been in. A tool was released to graph this information on a map, and the photo above is what it looks like for my iPhone.

Also interesting is the trail from Portland to San Francisco, where I took a train between the two cities while traveling this summer.

Ignoring the obvious security implications of this, I find the above picture to be pretty dang cool.
