If you use an app without wifi or cellular data, does that shut down the telemetry and tracking or does Apple handle that on their side so it can't be dodged? in c/asklemmy

Yup, you are right. Phones will keep collecting data point. It will upload as soon as it gets connected. But location can still be provided near realtime via Bluetooth on newer Android and iOS devices. This will happen even if device is offline.

Scammers usually try to target 🎯 gullible people like old people. Usually people who don't understand what's going on.

It's highly likely that these laws will be passed because more people are voting for right wing leaders in EU, Right wing heavily supports this. If EU sets the example soon the whole world will follow.

Does this mean hackernews & cloudflare are colluding together?

I really love cloudflare especially for my hobby projects but in this case they asked for outright Ransome. From this I learnt to keep Nameservers & domain sellers different. I am going to transfer domain away from nameserver.

I already know OP is talking about carrier unlock and I have also mentioned in my comments above. PIN unlock was just an example.

Google Helping DMCA frauds & censors (taxpolicy.org.uk)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/12094120

There’s an enormous and largely invisible campaign to use fraudulent notices under the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act to remove critical articles from the internet. We don’t know who is running the campaign, but we do know it’s facilitated by Google’s amazingly trustworthy approach to DMCA complaints made by companies that don’t exist.

If I create a OSS app with analytics to detect & log crashes with feature use, is it a bad practice? (self.opensource)

If I create a OSS app with analytics to detect & log crashes with feature use, is it a bad practice? I think analytics is really helpful in finding:-

  • which features are worth developing &
  • which bugs needs to be solved first.

Edit...

Things Collected

  • IP Address for use ping (for country)
  • All crashes with IP
  • Feature use with IP Crashes are store for upto 6 months to solve bug but rest are collected and delete after 3 months

It is opt-out but user are informed about it during first / install time. To disable analytics Settings --> Privacy

I want to know right way to introduce analytics in OSS
