Video'Strava Leaks' (2/3). Three of the world's most important leaders have been put in danger due to their security guards' use of the sports social media app Strava. In this second episode, we reveal how the current and former US presidents' lives are put in danger by the not-so-secret lives of Secret Service agents.

They are in Paris to provide security for First Lady Jill Biden, who will represent the United States at the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. But these agents are posting more than just tourist photos online.

In other words, they are unknowingly communicating their movements, including when on business.
