One thing I’m concerned about is recording equipment leaving identifiable information without us knowing about it.

      Any image editing tool like mspaint or similar. Just copy paste the pixels into a new image file. Though, the program youre using will probably still add it’s own metadata to the new file, but all the original metadata from the camera won’t be there.

      That’s the obvious one. But you can also add data to images by adding tiny values to the pixels, it’ll still look the same to us (same as printer tiny dots).

      I don’t know if phones actually do this. Just saying it’s possible.

      But many uploading sites optimize the images, so it’ll be gone on reshare, but they could get it on first upload.
