Publish type label on eBay?

I want to sell an appliance at eBay. Are there any concerns - privacy or otherwise - against posting a picture of the type label? ◅ Sebastian Helm 🗨 13:58, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I can't imagine any reason why you shouldn't do that, unless it reveals any personal information? You're simply supplying information about the appliance. Shantavira|^{feed me} 18:44, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Unless you take the photo with a device (eg phone) that embeds the GPS coordinates of where you took the photo in the EXIF. Then a savvy user could stalk you ;-) Commander Keane (talk) 06:38, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@SebastianHelm: Actually ebay already thought of this and strips the exif, so nevermind. Commander Keane (talk) 06:45, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Cool! Thanks to both of you! ◅ Sebastian Helm 🗨 02:02, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
