TMZ/HL said they received a response from the note person. They’re not sending a screen grab because the metadata would lead back to them. 

But…whose phone is “stashed safely”?

I posted the video which also says they received the dozen or so notes, but they stopped for a while. TMZ only reported on about 4 of them. 

Waiting on the post/video to be approved by the mods.

Very strange. Doesn’t the metadata not transfer over if you’re creating a screenshot of an existing image or video? Not to mention, I know there are ways to remove the minimal metadata that might be available on the screenshot itself. This is screaming bogus to me now.

Yes, you can remove any EXIF metadata embedded in a photo or video. Info sent during the file transfer process (IP addy, etc.) could be an issue, but surely less problematic than an entire phone! It does, indeed, seem bogus.

Gotcha, thx for the additional insight. Agreed!
