Hmm? The stripping of metadata is done for privacy reasons. People accidentally expose too much info when they take a photo if the metadata is left intact. When sharing a picture online, user's don't expect that they are also sharing the datetime, location, camera model and settings, and possibly their name (or the camera owner's name). The number of people that intentionally add their info to EXIF and want it to stay there is dwarfed by the people that would view that as a privacy violation.
