I think OwnTracks was named because you "own" all of the data.
- xnyhps 11y agoExcept for displaying your location on Google Maps and using Google's APIs to do reverse geocoding... Their definition of "private" doesn't seem to include "private from Google".
- jpmens 11y agoThat is, indeed, the "Own" in OwnTracks, and aside from the reverse geo-coding (which has to come from somewhere!) you do own your data.
