Disabling of third-party integrations for self-hosted deployments

almereyda commented 7 months ago

What happened?

When running the current Docker distribution, requests are made to third-party sources.

Cloudflare
Mixpanel

When telemetry is disabled in the user account, Mixpanel will become silent, even on the login form when logged out, but Cloudflare remains active.

In both cases we also see requests to:

https://affine.pro/favicon.ico
which perfectly acts as a tracking pixel
https://app.affine.pro/ in the redirect_uri after sending a POST request to /api/auth/sign-in
This is responded to with a 406, and upon a second try with a 200 and login works, despite malconfigured

This can be understood as a breach of privacy and could lead to illegal behaviour, esp. in the EU with regards to the GDPR.

Two resolution vectors offer themselves:

[ ] It is possible to disable (and configure) the third-party integrations to Cloudflare and Mixpanel (individually and) with an environmental variable.
[ ] It is possible to configure the redirect_uri parameter.
[ ] The favicon is hosted locally.

Distribution version

Linux

What browsers are you seeing the problem on if you're using web version?

Are you self-hosting?

### Anything else?

- [ ] Docker distribution is added to issue template as an option for choice. It is currently implied when checking the box for self-hosting.

We want to implement the fix or feature in the near future. We can’t promise it will appear in the next public release, but it’s on our short list.

disable cloudflare captcha is in progress https://github.com/toeverything/AFFiNE/pull/5961
we will provide an option if you wish to completely turn off telemetry in selfhost https://github.com/toeverything/AFFiNE/pull/6424
favicon.ico is our mistake https://github.com/toeverything/AFFiNE/pull/6425
redirect_uri was due to a bug in our frontend config, i will changed it to be based on the current url. https://github.com/toeverything/AFFiNE/pull/6426

Thank you!

Sorry for having bothered you, if this was the case.

Upon review, I'm seeing there are more mentions to app.affine.pro in https://github.com/toeverything/AFFiNE/pull/6425/files#diff-34fa70f6f51a4276612515c7bf9671e64310d0fa1601ca6a41d6d510137747a9L31-L32

Should those be removed or made configurable, too?

Dispite #6424 already merged, AFFiNE 0.17.0-nightly-2335e8a seems to ignore TELEMTRY_ENABLE=false option. The frontend still sends request to telemetry.affine.run.
