What would be insecure about it? Us reading all your images or something?
Browsers don't allow us to do that.
Or maybe images having metadata like Exif could contribute to leaking PII about OP e.g. location, device used to take the picture, etc.
Do we strip that before persisting to S3?
ETA: I think services like imgur strip that data for you, but I am not certain. There's so many image hosting services out there, idk how common this functionality is.

Oh that'd be cool!

@k00b is meta data stripped on uploads?
reply
No. I don't think it is. I forgot that's even a thing until @WeAreAllSatoshi brought it up.

If I had thought of this before now I would have commented on the PR. Thank you for asking the question @siggy47!

Yeah great point, completely forgot about that being a thing, haha
