Hi all, Just recently was contacted by two companies (Siemens, Airbus) who wanted know about Blender's license and whether the software would store any data online. Obviously they work with confidential IP that has to remain internal.
I replied: ------ We have a strict policy that Blender cannot connect to internet without explicit user permission. More over, the default install and they way we design tools are all meant to work without internet. We do have options to use cloud services, but these are addons that have to be manually enabled and saved in user startups." ------ Just wanted to check here if that's still valid and commonly supported (especially for add-ons). I think it's a good core value to make Blender - in the way we offer installs - to work stand-alone without using networks. Privacy & security are tough topics :) Thanks, -Ton- -------------------------------------------------------- Ton Roosendaal - [email protected] - www.blender.org Chairman Blender Foundation, Director Blender Institute Entrepotdok 57A, 1018 AD, Amsterdam, the Netherlands _______________________________________________ Bf-committers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
