Does this website reveal your location when you post photos?

It says location is included.

You ask screenshot? That's exactly worse. Metadata records about when and how the image was created. If you download it from the internet then it's like moving from folder to folder. If you compare downloads to screenshots then of course downloads are better. When taking camera photo vs screenshot, there's no difference unless you programmed it not to save metadata in either of the two programs doing it. Or you can simply remove it after each capture. ﾠ

It says add location in my photo album and I haven’t added any location. I have also turned off my location services.

Then it might not save location but does your time zone, date, device specifications

If you post a photo exactly as it was taken by your camera or smartphone, location is usually included in its metadata, and the metadata seems to be included in the picture on GaG.

So, answer seems to be YES.

Stupid that GaG doesn't automatically wipe it. It would save them storage space not to keep the metadata... really though that's how I reassured myself that I wasn't being lied to, when I remote viewed for another user here to prove that remote viewing is real, they gave me feedback that matched every descriptor and the picture I drew was like a photo copy. I first thought they're just being nice, making a photo of what matched my description to make me think I got it right when I didn't, but then I checked metadata and the picture they took was created an hour (considering the time zone difference) before I remote viewed it, on a separate device as we agreed (just to reassure that I had no way to hack their phone and cheat).

Even with linked images, they use www.imgbb.com like most users here, which keeps the metadata. I use www.freeimage.host which has the same template as imgbb but automatically removes metadata.

What if I post a screenshot?

[jennifer_bloom]

I know somebody who faked their location on this site and was planted purely to rival me.

It's just a tiny amount of sacrifice to be made. You already gave up many of your info on every app, so why not?

I might say what country you live in but I don’t think it will say what state and city you live in.

No idea
