1 point by Prof_Sigmund 3 months ago | hide | past | favorite | 1 comment


MetaPurge is a free Windows tool that removes hidden data from files.Drag and drop images or PDFs → gets clean copies with:All EXIF/metadata stripped (camera info, GPS, software tags) PDFs fully scrubbed (XMP + docinfo) File timestamps forced to 1990

Originals untouched. Overwrite confirmation if needed.Built because every photo/PDF leaks way too much without asking.Open source, MIT license. Single Python file – run directly or check source.Part of my XORD Defense privacy tools.Feedback and stars welcome.https://github.com/XORD-AI/MetaPurge
