--- Comment #7 from Daniel <daniel-other+kde...@dadosch.de> --- I think it should be the task of the program invoking the dataengine location request to ask the user for consent to submit the data. For the nightcolor applet, this means either a) ask the user initially (via a notification/popup; but probably bad to be overwhelmed by a popup right after installation), when starting first time, wether they want to use the auto-geolocation (and send their surrounding Wifi SSIDs) or wether they want to specify the location manually (may be make this step easier by entering zip code/clicking on map?). It is crucial for privacy, to have a proper, informed decisison of consent. b) Have a reasonable default option, which gets the location close enough for the nightcolor applet (without using external services). It doesn't have to be super exact, and maybe an educated guess based on the country specified in the settings or the timezone would be appropiate (being off by 20 minutes wouldn't be too bad, but being of by 2 hours would). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
