Yeah, I haven't had anyone complain to me online about it, but a couple
of friends have asked me about that.

I don't even ever see any potentially personal information -- I filter
the log by my PID, so I only see stuff associated with my process. I
also only ever paste it into an email, so they can see exactly what it
contains.

Which led to the discovery that the default email clients on Samsung
devices have an arbitrary cutoff of email length around 10k characters,
so now on Samsung devices I crop to the LAST 9k or so of log, since
that's typically the important part...sigh.
