BUG 1: FF 3.0 over Ubuntu
In my Ubuntu laptop I run Firefox 3.0.16 and I don't have the option
explained in the wiki (Page info -> Permissions -> Share my location).
Firefox 3.0 doesn't support geolocation, AFAIK.
BUG 2: FF 3.5 over Windows
Today I have tryed to send a post to identi.ca with another computer
(Firefox 3.5.6 over Windows XP) and it happens the same, my location is
made public without my consent. I have checked that "Share my location"
(at Page info -> Permissions) is blocked, but anyway my location is
showed. Why? I have no idea. I have blocked all the permissions but the
cookies (to allow login on identi.ca) but when I send the post in the
page, my location is published anyway. So I delete it again.
What's the user name you're testing with? I see no location info on
notices for user 'txopi'.
If we don't receive location information from your browser or your
client, we'll add your profile's current location. I set my location to
the same string as yours, and here's what I get:
http://identi.ca/notice/17667160
Is that similar what you're seeing? Geonames.org is mapping "Basque
Country" to the center of Vitoria (the capital, IIRC).
Meantime I hope you understand that I don't want to send posts (dents?) to
identi.ca.
I don't (understand, that is). I think that if you specify your location
in your profile it's entirely reasonable to assume that your notices are
coming from that location.
I also think that if you're willing to share that location with others
in your profile, it's a fair assumption that you're willing to geo-stamp
your notices from that location.
But you shouldn't see that behaviour from Firefox.
