METADATA VIEWER
Also known as EXIF data
Metadata (also called EXIF) is hidden data baked into every image by the camera or software that created it. It can reveal GPS coordinates, device model, timestamps, and software fingerprints, but it can also be edited or faked. Trust but verify.
What is metadata?
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Metadata, often called EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format), is data about data. Every digital image contains hidden information that was recorded when the photo was taken.

Why does it matter?
Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. For OSINT practitioners, metadata can reveal where and when a photo was taken, what device captured it, and sometimes even who created it.

Privacy considerations
