Does 4chan automatically strip exif data or are the /b/tards

They're lying. I've seen threads where exif data was used to dox some fool.

In my experience it does. I've sometimes taken pics with my phone and posted them right away. I always check afterwards with an online exif viewer if there's anything and there never is.

Do you have your location disabled on your phone? I think that's what saved me, but need a bit more proof that that's what it was.

when in doubt, assume /b/ is lying
even when not in doubt, assume /b/ is lying
and for fucks sake, lurk moar

Yes, but it should still show the phone model, shutter speed, aperture size etc. and there's nothing.

You're right to be cautious. /b/ is lying. Images posted on 4chan definitely CAN keep exif data, including GPS location. It depends on various factors and it may not happen tor some people such as >>16933734 but it can happen and therefore you should doublecheck to make sure it's all gone.
