Ask HN: Help me find who is leaking my data
Recently, during work I opened a github issue on the Skaffold project called "Skaffold fails when a container's status code is 1".
Yesterday, during a private video call with my family (using Line on Android), a popin appeared containing roughly this text:
Skaffold fails when a...
Start sharing your screen
I dismissed it and since wasn't able to reproduce it (sorry I don't have a screenshot).
I find it extremely creepy and concerning, especially since I usually am very careful with my privacy.
I already checked some possibilities but didn't find yet who leaked this and why.
I do not know if it is a feature from Android or Line either.
- I don't have the Github application installed
- I have email notifications for Github, but Gmail is not installed on my phone (but Google accounts linked)
- I have all privacy-invasive settings disabled on my private Google account, but it wasn't the case with my professional Google account (which is linked with my smartphone)
- I am never using third party logins, including Google
Does anyone have an idea how this happened?

- dave_sid 6y agoTo find a leak in a bike tyre you need to hold it in a basin of water and look for air escaping. Same for data.
