I suspect this horse has bolted. When I see a photo on a website and I want to know where it's taken, I assume it's been stripped already and ask an AI. The accuracy is uncanny.
Since it's a rare web site that leaves the EXIF data intact, I guess this is aimed at apps harvesting photos on the device itself. I hope Firefox gets a new site permission that allows you to upload photos with the EXIF intact, because that's often what I want. But that won't happen for a while, and until apps do get their permissions updated it's going to be annoying. It will be a right proper PITA to discover later your EXIF data is gone from the photos you transferred to your laptop.
