Default How much EXIF information is tracked by photo sharing sites?

Savageduck:
If there is an image I am truly concerned with, I will strip the metadata
before sharing, but I am not particularly paranoid.


Nor am I. I label my photos on Facebook and in Flickr with "Made at
Gambrills, Maryland, on DD MMM YYYY." Or other location, as
appropriate. Try to imagine the National Geographic or a newspaper
publishing photos in isolation, not saying where or when they were
taken. That would render most of the photos entirely useless.

I agree with almost everything that you have said and almost everything that
you will say in your entire life.
