  • You’re right - most media formats have support for metadata, which can include all sorts of things depending on how the image is created. For instance, most phones have an option to add location data to photos.

    A lot of identifiable info like location data is usually an option you can turn off. And there are a lot of tools to remove metadata from files. A quick search brought up this, which seems fairly reputable (and open source, which is usually good for sensitive stuff like this).



















  • Because android focuses on one app per screen, having a main launcher makes sense. But for windows, that idea doesn’t really translate. You can download programs to replace or change certain aspects, like rain meter or classic shell, but I don’t think anything exists that bothers to overhaul everything.

    There is a similar thing to launchers on Linux though, called desktop environments. These will change the behavior and ui of the entire desktop experience.
