Hi guys for the purpose of sharing online some MP3s without doxxing myself (lol), how do I strip all metadata? And what I want to know is, if I open those files after I strip the metadata will windows or the software (let's say windows media player or vlc) add new metadata related to my PC or user in some way?

I already stripped I think all of it with a python script made with ChatGPT, such that my pc asked if they were safe files because it couldn't find from where they came, but I don't have any experience on this and once they're out they're out and I don't wanna mess up.

I'm asking here because nobody knows data like people here. I lurk and learn a lot from you guys. Thank you bye!

Edit: I thought I was dealing with professionals... When I say metadata I mean data that connects the file in any way to the device, who cares about the mp3 tags in the context of privacy and anonimity!
