--- Comment #9 from Nate Graham <[email protected]> --- Seems like a paranoid rant by someone with precarious mental health. This person posted the same thing all over Reddit when Plasma 5.18 came out. I spent a lot of time responding to it, which is time I could have spent working on KDE stuff. :) There is one thing in there that I agree with though: > Why go through all this trouble just to collect seemingly useless information? For all the drama surrounding this, I've been quite disappointed that the data we're collecting is not very useful at all for helping us figure out what to prioritize working on, or help us understand how our users use our software. >From my perspective, little has been gained, but some goodwill has been lost and we've gained a new vector for criticism. Actually I also agree that if telemetry data is indeed being collected locally even when the system is off, then I agree that there is a problem. Off should mean no collection, not no transmission. If indeed that is happening, a bug report should be filed on only that, as it would be a bug. We want to fix bugs. :) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
