I think what they meant is to configure proxying all possible telemetry via this service, and enforce anonymisation. Sounds good imho. I'm trying to disable telemetry but it's always a losing game, each version adds something new to each app.
- jlarocco 4y agoI don't think that changes my answer. The telemetry proxy service would need packages for each distro, including scripts to work with systemd and init, and maybe a "libtelemetry" package to make using the service easier. The way I see it working is that if the system service isn't installed, isn't running, or has remote telemetry turned off then the commands for sending telemetry will succeed but send the data to /dev/null. Otherwise the data gets anonymized and uploaded to the user's configured telemetry host. It could almost be built on syslog, now that I think about it more, but that would be terrible.
