Security and privacy professional. Currently testing and evaluating Signal username staging application.
Can I add it to my Amazon wish list?
Anytype has responded and I had a couple other clarifying questions. Their first response:
“Hi! In our privacy policy we include Amplitude & Sentry & explain why we work with them: anytype.io/app_privacy. Currently, you can opt-out by electing local-only or self-hosted network Mode”
Sentry is only used for bug tracking and I don’t have any issue or privacy concerns with that.
I had already looked on their website for a privacy policy and the only one I could locate was a website only privacy policy. I learned later that the application privacy policy is buried as a link somewhere within the website privacy policy. This is not very easy to find.
I reviewed the application privacy policy and it conflicted with their answer stating that a user could opt out of information sharing with Amplitude by using “local only” or “self-hosted”. So I pointed this out and posted this reply to them:
“Also, app privacy policy section for Amplitude states: Amplitude Analytics Purpose: deliver behavioral and app usage data. Opt-out possible: NO”
This is the response I received:
“Indeed this is outdated information, as it was written before self-hosting and local-only mode were properly configurable. Opt-out is now possible using these methods, and we will be updating the policy accordingly.”
I looked at some of these on my own and found:
graylog provides data privacy and protection services for companies offering software as a service (SaaS). So this seems legit to me and needed for their core functionality. It is not a marketing or data analytics company.
amplitude appears to be a data analytics company and on the surface is not needed and Anytype should explain this.
sentry appears to be an application error tracking company and this seems a legit connection
api2 seems like a generic server name and likely needed for their core functionality, this seems legit to me
telemetry also seems like a generic server name; however, the purpose, based on its name does not seem to be needed. Anytype should explain this as well.
I’ve contacted Anytype about this and will post their response.
I run Graphene OS on my phone and have an always on VPN connection. Plus I use a different email address, username, and password for 99% of my accounts. So I don’t worry about telemetry, analytics, or data marketing anymore.
I use Anytype (anytype.io) on my phone and desktop. I make a page for each trip and add screenshots of confirmations, maps, itinerary, etc.
Anytype is similar to Notion but is open source and encrypted locally.
I have docker on the machine now and thought I’d try that type of install first. Sorry, I’m not familiar with the abbreviation “wsl2”
I had been running Nextcloud on an old laptop using Ubuntu, but that machine died. I have a Windows PC originally built for gaming that I am considering using for Nextcloud. Anyone have any experience with NC and Windows? Thought on the DB switch on Windows?
Download and installed but it still insists on a phone number. I don’t see a way to bypass.
What do you use for paywall remover?
Have you looked at Starlink or T-Mobile 5g home internet?
All cameras and data collection CAN be abused. Is there any evidence that this HAS been abused?

What OS are you using with your RP4to host all that?
We need an online guide, based on make and model, on how to disable the transmission of this data.
