Google Analytics #823

Remove Google Analytics

If you must have an analytics system, might I suggest either:

These solutions are all well-tested and open-source. This, of course, means they can be independently audited for privacy and security. Instead of using a proprietary nonfree system such as Google Analytics, perhaps we could work together to replace it with something slightly more ethical?

Furthermore, the majority of privacy features in evergreen browsers block Google Analytics from being run. I can not say the same for solutions such as Plausible, which suggests they are trusted for their privacy by independent persons.

If you need any more information, please contact me!

I'm curious. How does this connect to Normalize.css?

Does Google offer some kind of a CSS code level Analytics solution that's built in, but isn't referenced or do you mean as a general statement for all online communities?

I think because the web page uses it.

Yeah, the web page uses it.
