100% agreed; people generally don't realize how deanonymizing EXIF data can be.

I remember one of my cameras or phones including a "seconds since device startup" counter; together with the exact time the photo was taken, this yields a precise timestamp of when a phone was last restarted. This by itself can be highly deanonymizing out of a small to medium sized set of candidate phones/photographers.

I mean the serial number of the camera and possibly lens are included too…

Not for most phones, fortunately.
