Midjourney Prompt Leakage in PNG Headers
Midjourney automatically saves generation metadata in the PNG tEXt chunk. Anyone who downloads your raw Midjourney PNG can inspect its EXIF/tEXt chunks to copy your exact prompt, job ID, and seed number.
Why Should You Clean Midjourney Metadata?
If you create commercial art or custom assets, exposing your prompts allows competitors to replicate your style instantly. Cleaning metadata preserves your prompt privacy.
How PurgeMeta Protects Midjourney Creators
PurgeMeta's Lossless Binary mode scans the raw PNG binary structure and strips all tEXt, iTXt, and zTXt metadata chunks while keeping 100% pixel fidelity.
