That silo is still aggregating data. Trying to argue its "less" centralized by using quantification of the amount of centralization is still akin to dissonance.

That silo is still aggregating data. Trying to argue its "less" centralized by using quantification of the amount of centralization is still akin to dissonance. Clearly people here don't agree with this, but that's to be expected when the topic is so polarizing. Traffic analytics must be important, so we rationalize our actions, or inactions around how we collect them. Any centralized solution, at any scale, can possibly violate someone's privacy. Period. If we want to really fix things, we should stop circle jerking ourselves and do something about it.
