Fitness tracking under scrutiny as Strava military data leak exposes personnel

A report summarizes how publicly shared Strava activity logs were linked to more than 500 UK military personnel, enabling mapping of sensitive locations and potentially revealing residences, workplaces, and asset positions (one case reportedly disclosed a naval vessel). The issue is framed as a visibility/privacy problem where default sharing settings and correlated account histories allow routine fitness posts to produce real operational security consequences.
