Advice for Telemetry Check #17

Closed Boomspring closed 11 months ago

Boomspring commented 11 months ago

I have been trying to run this on an M2, and almost succeeded 😄 But I am getting to the "TelemetryNotDisabled" state.

I have confirmed that I have manually added the addresses in SERVERS.txt to my /etc/hosts file. Since MacOS doesn't have pkexec, the current code should fail right... I even went further and added a "block drop from any to" rule for each address inside /etc/pf.conf so they return "request timeout" on each ping.

Any suggestions on what I would have to change to either bypass the telemetry check, or to make it succeed?

I mean, launcher says which telemetry server it wants to disable. It literally prints it both in "Telemetry is not disabled" message and in debug.log file.

Moreover, this project never was designed to work on macos. I can't help with its bugs.

Thanks for replying, you didn't have to but I appreciate it. I managed to get a workaround using the original patch project as a basis. They were disabled properly, so all good in my eyes.
