You’re absolutely correct, but you and I both know that normal people are going to only manage to create a dithered JPG that’s almost half a MB in size.

I laughed because last week, I had to teach the marketing team why you shouldn't upload your iPhone photos to the website. Each page has a nice 4meg high res photo.

Oh my, I did a scan and yes... We have location meta data on our images.

Oh boy.
