Allow people contributing pictures to conceal camera make and model for privacy reasons
When I uploaded some photos taken using my smartphone I didn’t realise that the wikiMedia website would display all the EXIF metadata from the camera.

Push for EU standards
There seems to be a wide push for USA companies to apply the standards of the GDPR worldwide, for all users: https://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-facebook-ceo-privacy-exclusive/exclusive-facebook-ceo-stops-short-of-extending-european-privacy-globally-idUKKCN1HA2MN
The implications of GDPR may be unclear for our free software, but it would still be helpful if Wikimedia Foundation were ready to answer similar questions. --Nemo 06:06, 4 April 2018 (UTC)
