F-Droid adds Tracking Anti-Feature to Open Note Scanner #189

Closed uniqx closed 4 years ago

uniqx commented 4 years ago

We found install tracking in Open Note Scanner. See fdroiddata#1920 for more details on what we found. Thus we're going to add a Anti-Feature warning about Tracking to inform our users about this. If you'd like to get that Anti-Feature warning in F-Droid removed, please disable all tracking the fdroid build flavor and let me or someone else from our team know.

When I added it I talked to you, a few years ago.

Tracking is disabled by default, have an opt in and it isn't needed to use the app.

If this is not ok anymore, I will disable it on f-droid version, please let me know.

Best regards, Claudemir

We still allow opt-in tracking without adding an anti-feature warning. However the latest version of Open Notes Scanner in F-Droid appears to be tracking users unconditionally: 6dd79bd:app/src/main/java/com/todobom/opennotescanner/OpenNoteScannerApplication.java#L77

@uniqx, a few lines before the setOptOut property of the matomo client is set using the setting from the preferences screen (line 60). Default value is disabled and enabled only on the google play flavour.
