RE: Examples of the dangers of Exif Metadata - Synthx - 04-04-2017
Well, I am glad that I saw this. I went straight to http://metapicz.com/ and checked my image, and there was zero data there!
I also now refuse to take a screenshot on mac with the key combo, I will from now on use gyazo. The apple screenshot saves metadata to the image :/ as gyazo has like 4 lines, that dont even mean much

I always check for exif on my images, and have all my cameras set to not include it. Thats also the reason I do not allow photos of me to be taken.

Precisely this, I totally agree.
Always check your device's default settings prior to taking and sharing Images online. Also upon uploading a given Image, a lot or websites (example Facebook) strip It's metadata, whilst others leave It be (example Flickr). I never share anything "personal" and always use the same device when sharing Images In general.
Thanks for this thread, It's very Informative Indeed.

I'm on my Macbook Air and tried the screenshot + metapicz lookup and no geographical information was captured except ICC Profile which is natural for all images.
I think if you had privacy of location settings from the OS set properly it won't capture it, I might be wrong.
