Does 4chan automatically strip exif data or are the /b/tards lying to me?
>>
They're lying. I've seen threads where exif data was used to dox some fool.
>>
In my experience it does. I've sometimes taken pics with my phone and posted them right away. I always check afterwards with an online exif viewer if there's anything and there never is.

Do you have your location disabled on your phone? I think that's what saved me, but need a bit more proof that that's what it was.
>>
>>16933482
when in doubt, assume /b/ is lying
even when not in doubt, assume /b/ is lying
and for fucks sake, lurk moar
>>
>>16933768
Yes, but it should still show the phone model, shutter speed, aperture size etc. and there's nothing.
>>
You're right to be cautious. /b/ is lying. Images posted on 4chan definitely CAN keep exif data, including GPS location. It depends on various factors and it may not happen tor some people such as >>16933734 but it can happen and therefore you should doublecheck to make sure it's all gone.
