Is there any difference in privacy from user's perspective if you use Google Analytics or self hosted? If any, the later is more prone to be hacked or misused than former and could not be easily blocked like Google's.
- adrianN 6y agoI'd argue that yes, there is a difference between having lots of small data silos with private data and having one huge database that tracks complete behavior chains. I don't really care whether the bartender at my usual pub knows what I like to drink, but I would care if there were a global database tracking my drinking behavior.
- realusername 6y agoYes there is, it's harder to track you around the web when the data is scattered around multiple places with no way to group the identifiers.
