You can't track me by my IP address because it's always different after every boot (assuming the server has an IPv6 address, which it should because we're in 2016). The machine-id stays constant. Yes, the machine-id is readable by all users and all processes, so it's not like I could stop a rogue process from transmitting it. But I'd rather a KDE process didn't do it. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago (AT) macieira.info - thiago (AT) kde.org Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center _______________________________________________ kde-community mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-community
