Original title: where did the original drawing leak? Wechat: photos of circle of friends without location and other information
Tencent's wechat team microblog reported on December 1 that in response to the online hot discussion about "wechat sending original pictures or divulging location information", it responded that don't panic. In fact, we had related rumor refutation as early as 2017: you need to know about sending original pictures. Today, photos taken by any smartphone contain EXIF parameters, which can call GPS data to record location, time and other information in the photos. Whether you send the original image by wechat, SMS, email or other transmission tools, the attached information will be sent together. However, the photos sent by the circle of friends are automatically compressed by the system without location and other information. If you are really worried, you can avoid sending the original drawing or turning off the positioning.
