It's perfectly fine for fingerprinting though. Innocuous artifacts in file formats such as custom matrices, digits on the seventh decimal position of a floating point number or millisecond-precision timestamps allow identification and cross-referencing of internet users.

Just last week I noticed that when a reddit user uploads a screenshot taken on MacOS as PNG image to a reddit post, the PNG will still contain uniquely identifying information about the monitor that is attached to the MacOS system and when it was last calibrated. You can deduce type of Macbook they are using from the screen resolution and see when they switched machines once you notice a different monitor calibration timestamp. Just from a single PNG image that was uploaded by the user themselves. If those two pieces of information are not stored in the PNG you know that they must be Windows or Linux user.

It's these small breadcrumbs all over the place which make forensics so interesting.
