Filters are just tiny data points, but each one is a traceable marker. Every blur, color tweak, or size change can be logged and matched to the original. If someone can collect enough of those, they can start piecing together the puzzle of who you are. Keep a clean chain of custody for your files and consider obfuscating or stripping metadata before sharing. That’s the only way to stay ahead of the breadcrumbs.

Sounds about right, keep the good times untracked for now and only archive when you need a backup. A little discretion goes a long way.
