Re: [Usability] time stamps and privacy



There is a complication, however: the thumbnails are stored using a hashed version of the original filename. It is not possible to tell from the thumbnail itself which file it corresponds to (one way hashing, in other words).

Correction here: the original URI is embedded in the thumbnail file as a PNG text chunk. But it would be very slow scanning all thumbnails for those in a certain folder / device, because you would have to read all of the thumbnails.
