Good catch. I’m satisfied with the test so I won’t be doing another one. Feel free to try one of your own photos which includes location data and report back to us with your findings.
You have windows running right now but refuse to do the thing you think invalidates my opinion for not doing, btw free work for you. I don’t care, I don’t need this information for my benefit. So what does that make your opinion since you won’t spend the minute or two doing it?
I truly don’t understand how Internet people can turn a mild suggestion into a fucking argument. Fuck everything.
Edit: how stupid is it to be mad about “hey paint wasn’t made for that, be careful. Plus it’s ms”

Results are in. According to jimpl.com, saving as PNG in MS Paint does remove some exif data.
I don’t know what’s possible to be stored as exif data so I can’t tell you if this is everything. But here’s my result.
Interesting. Location is the big one though, which your test image didn’t have.

Tell you what. I’ll test it myself. Be right back.
