We see the photos that you've been taking and sharing, and we absolutely love them.

That you can post them here isn't nothing, because CounterSocial goes to great lengths to keep them (and you) safe.

How?

Well, SANITIZER isn't just a meaningless label on the post authoring window. It's a key feature that strips all metadata from the media (and URLs) you post, meaning your photo only contains the information you share about it—if any.

It's one of many ways we protect you.

We're not afraid to admit it, but SANITIZER is actually a little too good at what it does.

It's so good at scrubbing metadata that it also removes the orientation information from the pictures you post. That's why they're sometimes sideways in the timeline.

It'll also remove extra tags from URLs, which can break the links you intend to post.

If you'd like to stop SANITIZER from doing its thing, just add the word "NOSANITIZE" to your post.

We'd like to point out a "fun fact" if it isn't already obvious.

CounterSocial strips your metadata to keep you safe.

Every other social media site harvests your metadata to farm you with targeted ads.
