Snap has announced<\/a> that it\u2019s temporarily turning off Snapchat\u2019s \u201cheatmap\u201d feature<\/a> for Ukraine, making it so the app no longer shows how many snaps are being taken in particular locations. The company says that the move is \u201ca safety precaution\u201d and that there will still be a curated public feed of snaps submitted by Ukrainians.<\/p>\n
Normally, the Snap Map<\/a> displays a color code to show how many people are posting public images in an area. In practice, that means you can get a good idea of where Snapchat users are concentrated. While this publicly available data isn\u2019t usually meaningful (it\u2019s not a surprise that more people are posting from downtown Seattle than the nearby national forest), in a wartime scenario<\/a> where Russia may want to track evacuations or citizen movements, it\u2019s probably for the best that the feature is turned off.<\/p>\n
\nCompanies are being careful in the region<\/q><\/aside>\n<\/div>\nOther companies have taken similar actions to make Ukrainians\u2019 movements harder to track \u2014 Google turned off live traffic information<\/a> in Ukraine, as did Apple<\/a>. Snap has also taken a few additional actions following the Russian invasion of Ukraine. According to a news post from the company<\/a>, it\u2019s stopped showing ads in Russia, Belarus, and Ukraine, and won\u2019t sell ad spots to Russian entities. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
