Great plugin
Excellent plugin, simple and to the point. Confirmed it works perfectly via the "Edit more details" link when viewing an image in the media gallery.

Works as it should
Simple but most effective. Removes the exif and meta data from images in the native image folder. 1 issue I came across that -scaled images block the plugin from functioning so with batch removal make sure you uncheck the scaled images.. Thank you for creating this!

Awesome work
Hi, Great work you've done with this plugin. Perfect timing considering the privacy concerns of our world today. I'd like to kindly ask you to add the ability to remove "description" of uploaded images in real time too. Some plugins automatically add unnecessary data ... The media related ones anyway and this is why it's a goldmine. The only case where metadata is stored is if we go back to edit the image manually. Looking forward to your response/update. Thanks for an awesome work and hopefully, we can see more tools that continue to take privacy seriously
