What ever happened to the users? (Where's TRON when we need him?) Anything that sends information OUT of my computer that I have not pre- authorized is in violation of many privacy policies, regardless of the aggregate. Yes, I am aware of much that goes out (IP address for one), most necessary, some optional, but to include something as this as a default that is functionally UNNECESSARY is both inappropriate and an affront to the intelligence of the FOSS community.
Let this be a wake-up call not to "assume" that everyone in the FOSS community is benevolent and good; or at least follow both Code of Conducts and common sense. I vote to remove it, and also to require full disclosure on any FURTHER outgoing data collected or sent from computers using Ubuntu and Ubuntu- authorized programs -- multisearch CSE breaks l18n+setfocus+images+cached+I'm feeling lucky functionality and "violates user trust" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/402767 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
