For months members of the public have been using GeoSpy, a tool trained on millions of images that can find the location a photo was taken based on soil, architecture, and more. It's GeoGuesser at scale.
Use unidentifiable backgrounds or remove them in post. I’d suggest small patches of sand, dirt or grass, walls, etc. Avoid anything that can be found on a map like mountains (and other large scale topography), buildings, power lines, etc.
the article mentions that the tool takes into consideration architecture, distance between buildings and so on.
i think youd have to mess up the backgrounds somehow
So, take pictures in monochrome or apply some kind of filters is what you’re saying?

Use generative AI to replace the background of all photos. I’m sure someone will come up with an app that does this automatically one day
We’re getting closer and closer to a scanner darkly.
I was searching for the title of that movie a while ago. Thanks.
There are filters that autonatically blur background.
