One thing I’m concerned about is recording equipment leaving identifiable information without us knowing about it.

    Even without EXIF data I would bet the actual encoding of the image will be identifiable to a specific instance of the camera software.

    Similar to how websites fingerprint your browser by rendering something in the canvas or webgl and sending back the rendered image. The exact same rendering procedure will produce slightly different images for each browser instance. I suspect browsers are fully aware and complicit in this because why the actual fuck would they not make the rendering engines deterministic to their inputs?!
