Gregory's Server@RL_Dane @davidgerard @onepict #telemetry like this should always be an opt-in thing. I'm curious if this is actually legal in the EU or in California? Seems like it might fly in the face of CCPA or GDPR.

 @davidgerard The implementation could get particularly interesting since #Google is a #California company and definitely falls under the #CCPA. #IANAL  Understanding how incredibly useful basic metrics are, I'm not against *extremely* basic telemetry being on by default, like literally a single https POST on initial startup containing the build number and perhaps a single 64-bit hash of some dmidecode data. And I'm usually the one screaming loudest about corporate privacy violations. |
@vwbusguy this is a question that is being asked, and being hidden. the answer per the letter of the law in both jurisdictions is "lol hell no."
