Yes.
AOU tells me it does…. Though proving it isn’t recorded as uploaded is another story. I have trust issues. Best to strip it yourself, amd run it through a jpg optimization and resize it slightly. That eliminates exif, and telltale pixel signatures. Though your computer is still tracked through various back doors and monitoring software, also hard coded into the chipsets and also copied and monitored every time it moves anywhere on the 8nternet, and if it’s on google,it’s way worse than that with facial recognition, all your known contacts, and everything you’ve ever done or said.
Need to upload a pic? Buy a Craigslist camera, data strip and optimist on a system like tails. Upload from a trusted VPN from a random WiFi. There may be more steps needed, I’m really tired after crossing half a continent.
