We often read about “anonymous telemetry” but am I over-reacting when I suspect anonymity of being *possibly* a plain lie? The point is that I just don’t know and that within doubt I choose precaution hence a systematic refusal of telemetry. I do of course understand the huge difference between opt-in and opt-out but in both cases I’ve always been confronted to my ignorance of what - exactly - is gathered by telemetry. Google with Google Analytics to collect the following information:įor what I’m aware of telemetry is banned to the extent of my skills. Should development focus on an emergency fix because the issue could potentially affected a lot of users, or is affecting few users only?Īs far as Telemetry is concerned, it will be opt-in and disabled by default, only included in the official GitHub releases and not when developers compile Audacity from source.Īudacity plans to use two providers, Google and Yandex initially. In another, the developers use the data to determine the extend of a critical issue that has been reported to them.

In one of the provided examples, the developers state that Telemetry would help them make educated decisions in regards to removing support for old versions to upgrade important components that these older versions don't support anymore. In other words: nothing gets collected and submitted by default.īut why Telemetry in the first place? The developers explain that they need some data to make informed decisions. Audacity's collecting of Telemetry will make use of the second option.
