What it does

Most metadata removers upload your files to their servers. Blindfold doesn't. Everything runs inside your browser — no uploads, no servers, no risk. Drop any file — photo, PDF, DOCX, PPTX, or Excel. See exactly what hidden data is inside it: GPS coordinates, author names, AI generation markers, revision history. Then strip it all in one click. Free for images. Pro unlocks documents, batch upload up to 50 files, and a full PDF Privacy Report showing exactly what was removed.

Free browser-based metadata remover. Strip EXIF, GPS, author info and AI C2PA tags locally. Your files never leave your device.

Your files carry hidden data that reveals who you are, where you've been, and what device you used. Blindfold removes it all — right here in your browser. Every photo taken on a phone or camera embeds EXIF metadata — GPS coordinates, device model, and timestamps — directly into the file. This data travels silently with your photo wherever you share it, often revealing your exact location to anyone who knows how to look. Blindfold uses Web Workers, a browser technology that runs code in an isolated thread inside your own device. Your file is read, scanned, and cleaned entirely in your browser's memory — never transmitted to any server. When you close the tab, nothing remains. That means no…from blindfold.hustleworld.app

  • Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

  • Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
