By the way, what happens to exif when you upload online (or also fb or instagram)? Does it get removed or can everyone see my location?

- nicoburns 7y agoFacebook will usually resize the photo, which ditches most of the EXIF information I think. You can be damn sure that facebook are tracking your location though.
- sp332 7y agoIt doesn't automatically get removed. Some services will remove some information. Facebook, predictably, uses the info itself but strips it from downloads. https://www.consumerreports.org/privacy/what-can-you-tell-from-photo-exif-data/ https://www.consumerreports.org/privacy/what-can-you-tell-fr...

- petepete 7y agoI have an EXIF viewer browser plugin and it's interesting to see how many images online retain their metadata. You see it in lots of places, from newspapers to forums and portfolios.
