What the title says.

Anyone can use exif/libexif to create a service that does this. It's well outside the scope of the libexif project, though. If you're talking about adding support for URLs on the command-line, that's also out of scope. exif is a tool that follows the UNIX philosophy, and you can already do that by combining it with another tool to get a file from a URL. For example:

exif <(curl -L https://github.com/libexif/libexif/raw/master/test/testdata/canon_makernote_variant_1.jpg)
