FWIW I also saw on CNBC that everything you print out of your printer can be traced back to you if they want to. There are little codes and numbers you can't see that print out with each sheet that can indentify your printer. Makes you want to think twice before sending a crazy letter to your boss at work or something LOL.
I also saw a report on some creep slime child porn guy who had posted his pic online with the porn, but with his face blurred out, but they were able to pretty easily go back in and unblur his face, and there he was plain as day for all to see and they found him and got him.

I thought about that about a year ago but never put that much thought into it but what you state makes so much since & I understand all of it. You have done really well in the research field & this boards "needs" guys like you to keep us on our toes. You get "2 big thumbs up" cause I thought about it but you've answered questions I've wanted & some I've hadn't thought of. I really appreciated it.

Posts: 680EXIF information in JPEG file headers, and other tidbits
This is for Slove and other folks out there making pix and posting them on this forum and possibly other places. You may or may not be aware of this.
Whenever you make a picture with a digital camera, quite a bit of data is encoded in the JPEG file other than the actual picture. This "metadata" contains a wealth of information about the camera used, exposure conditions, time, date, yada, yada that our Uncle Leo might find useful. This includes a "thumbnail" photo of the full-size file which will generally remain unedited even if you use photo manipulation software to "fuzz out" someone's face or otherwise manipulate the image. Also, the version, serial number, ect, of the photo manipulation software may also be recorded. So if you have a registered version of Photoshop and use it to edit the photo without also stripping the metadata from the file afterward, they have your number, literally.
But here is what I found most interesting. All digital cameras use a chip, CCD or otherwise, and every chip contains minor imperfections. These imperfections are unavoidable and cause no degradation of the photo which is detectable to the naked eye, but which is detectable as "noise" and can be matched to an individual camera as accurately as ballistics can be used match a bullet to a particular gun. So what, you might be thinking?? Well, you have to remember that as a part of the QC process the manufacturers will make a series of test shots with the camera and no doubt keep the shots forever, all neatly arranged in a database which can be searched by camera serial number. And if you think that these manufacturers would balk for a second about handing this information over to whichever governmental agency that requests them, you are living in Dreamland.
In fact, I would be willing to bet they ALREADY HAVE handed this information over and will continue to "cooperate" with "legitimate requests" from any and all "intelligence" and/or "law enforcement agencies" to hand any and all such information over at the drop of a pin, probably on an ongoing basis. This means that if you own a digital camera and you ordered it online or paid for it by any means other than cash, or if you filled out the warranty registration and sent it back, your photos can be traced directly back to you by the "digital fingerprint" of the camera and the paper trail you left paying for it.
Remember, you have no right to privacy, and the 4th amendment has all but been repealed. Osama gave the Facists in the US government carte blanche to defecate on your rights and wipe their asses with the constitution, all in the name of making you safe from "terrorists" of course.
