Default Deconstruct a GIF file

Can someone deconstruct a GIF screenshot that I have edited to remove
information?

If I successively edit a GIF screenshot to remove private data and then
post the resulting GIF file on the net, is there something I should do to
test whether the data I removed is not still stuck in hidden "layers" in
the GIF file?

Very easy: open the file in a binary editor and check for the data you
removed. If you don't see it, it's gone.
