<b>Remove metadata from Tor Browser uploads</b>
<br>
Likely Mentors: <i>Arthur D. Edelstein (arthuredelstein)</i>
<p>
Tor Browser is a privacy-preserving web browser used by millions of
users around the world. We are looking for a programmer fluent in JS
and C++ to implement new features to work closely with the Tor Browser
team.
Image files, especially photos taken by smartphones,
often carry hidden privacy-violating metadata, typically specified by
the EXIF format. Such metadata can include the user's geolocation and
various unique identifiers. In order to protect the user's identity,
we would like the intern to modify the file-upload feature in Tor
Browser such that metadata in image files is automatically removed
before the image is uploaded to a server. Ideally, the summer intern would
implement this feature for both desktop and mobile Tor Browser. If
there is time, we can envision sanitizing other kinds of uploaded
files, including movies, audio, PDFs and Office documents.
