    To add to this, the EXIF data is specifically what is stripped from the image during upload. EXIF data can have a lot of extra details about the image like what camera took it, what settings it used, and even precisely where the photo was taken. Stripping this data is done to protect users from accidentally leaking the GPS location (such as the location of their home).
