An investigation by the French newspaper Le Monde has revealed that security personnel for several world leaders, including U.S. President Joe Biden, former President Donald Trump, Vice President Kamala Harris, and French President Emmanuel Macron, have been using the fitness app Strava. This usage has inadvertently exposed their locations and movements, raising concerns about security protocols. The report highlights how these security details, while tracking their fitness activities, have compromised the privacy of the leaders they are tasked to protect, as their data is accessible to other users of the app.
