How a Running App Compromised the Security of Sweden’s Prime Minister

Imagine this: Sweden’s Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson, while jogging, unknowingly shares his location with the entire world! Yes, you read that right. His bodyguards have used a publicly available running app at least 35 times, revealing detailed information about the Prime Minister’s movements. This isn’t just harmless running maps — these details could expose Kristersson’s home address, his usual routes, and places he stays when traveling abroad. Is this a security blunder or a total fail? The Swedish Security Service (SAPO) admitted they were unaware that such apps could pose a serious security risk. How is it possible that bodyguards, whose job is to protect the Prime Minister, don’t realize they are sharing his most private locations? This isn’t just a tech issue; it’s common sense! As the world gets more digital, our leaders and their protectors need to be smarter than the apps they use. Or will we soon be able to track prime ministers and presidents like Instagram celebrities? If you think this is funny, wait until you see what happens next. What do you think? Is it time for bodyguards to get a digital literacy course or to ban running apps altogether? Drop a comment and let’s see who’s for and who’s against!
