- Alphasite_ 11y agoTo the best of my knowledge the only telemetry that OSX provides is crash logs, and only if you opt into it. You could argue that spotlight's (and Safari's) web search should be included, but I disagree.
- NetStrikeForce 11y agoI'm curious, why wouldn't you include Safari and Spotlight?
- Alphasite_ 11y agoBecause they aren't metrics, but search integration. So as I understand it, they equivalent to google instant (safari literally; spotlight on the same vein) and they claim not to retain data on them.
