Just speculating here, but I wonder if their point is that they went out of their way to create a PDF that is as unusable as possible, and that Word 2010 is somehow required to create such a PDF.
A few simpler explanations:
- Equifax IT hasn't rolled out modern O365 apps
- The form was created a long time ago, and has not been updated
Regardless of the exif data, I do believe that friction is absolutely a feature in this process, but I also think the Word 2010 angle is tenuous at best.
- varenc 5y agoNo angle or point with that comment. Just interesting! I like looking at exif data. And I think there should be more awareness around what it often leaks.
- mesozoic 5y agoProbably it's buried in a ticket deep in the feature requests lists and has zero potential revenue impact (or negative) so it isn't prioritized.
- wonderhamster 5y agoI've worked on these kinds of systems, but not this one explicitly. There is always a discussion about how to make it(legally) more difficult for users to do something you don't want them to do. It's not paranoia, it's reality.
