All of my images, film and digital, have exif data. I strip that data prior to posting in order to avoid misleading those certain folks who feel it's necessary to view that information.

Metadata tags are not compressed, but some programs do remove meta-data (e.g. F-stop, GPS data, copyright info). Sometimes this is desired for privacy reasons (e.g. removing GPS data) and other times, this becomes a problem. Almost all images have meta-data fields.
