RE: Update: Steem-Exif-Spider-bot New Voting and Comments Queues
Visible EXIF data is public if a poster chooses to publish it in their post - and technically they have published it by posting an image - so anyone with half a brain can view the data if they want to - it's not up to you to spam it in their comments. There is nothing convenient about any of this. Your script is horrendous - kill it and DO NOT EXECUTE IT AGAIN.
Your campaign against my daughter is despicable. You should be ashamed. Odds are, this will be refined. It will be run again. It'll probably be run on opt-in basis, so people that don't know about it or don't want to use it don't have to.
You're just one no in a sea of YES.
IT IS NOT USEFUL - YOU ARE PULLING META DATA FROM EVERY IMAGE YOU SCRAPE - WHETHER IT BE A SCREENSHOT, GRAPHIC ART, SLIDE SCANS ETC. AND YOU ARE POSTING THIS DATA IN THE COMMENTS OF POSTS THAT HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH PHOTOGRAPHY - AT ALL
You say it's not useful and then you explain exactly why it is useful. Which is it? I'm not posting any data in comments. I can't be held responsible for what users do with this bot.
Also, it's checking the #photography tag. If it's picking up images that are not #photography, then that's tag abuse. It's not the bot's fault.
