Summary: "Remove Metadata" plugin necessary
Product: digikam
Version: unspecified
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
ReportedBy: kde-2 dotancohen com
Version: (using KDE 4.1.0)
Installed from: Ubuntu Packages
Digital photos can convey much metadata that users may not be aware about. Especially in the case of Digikam where users can add comments, tags, and other metadata to a photo, it is necessary to have a way to clear this data. Users may send photos to friends or relatives, and the metadata may contain information that is sensitive or classified. There are known cases of other file format's metadata being used against the file's original sender (notably MS Word documents), and there is reason to suspect that similar cases could arise in the case of digital photographs as well.
