Good question. To remove GPS metadata perhaps?
- DonHopkins 7y agoI always thought it would be safer to forge the GPS data so it points to a police station, instead of just removing it. Then your stalkers and thieves might be arrested for loitering and breaking and entering there, instead of at your own home.
- zaroth 7y agoWhich police station? What coordinates precisely? Could there be signs of which software you used to alter the data? All these things could leak bits of identifying information, which I think is strictly worse than the 1 bit of information leaked by removing EXIF entirely.
- DonHopkins 7y agoOne that will cost your enemies a lot of money to travel to, in a dangerous neighborhood, with a long record of police brutality and violence.
- penagwin 7y ago> Then your stalkers and thieves might be arrested for loitering and breaking and entering there, instead of at your own home. So I have 0 experience as a stalker - but won't they put that data into Google maps, see it's a police station, and probably assume that isn't your home? You'd have to be really brave and stupid to loiter and break and enter a station thinking it was somebody's home.
