Sure. Like any JavaScript. As long as the provider of the service is transparent about what is collected, what’s the problem? There’s nothing preventing a system provider from making this collection opt-in.
What’s with the assumption that the service provider cannot observe how their system performs?
- marginalia_nu 5y agoIf you are invited to a dinner, you aren't entitled to eating all the food yourself because the hosts put it on the table, you aren't allowed to do anything you feel like in your host's home, use their toothbrush, drill holes in their walls. In a similar way, your software is borrowing time and computing resources from your users. You need to use them sparingly and respect that you do not own their hardware, but are a guest they have invited in. It's not your computer to do whatever you want with.
