The response post I was reading (and got posted here) didn't include any details. I can't tell if they actually looked at the response or were depending on someone else. But that is better than the original article that didn't even look.
Why would you expect any private data to be sent when requesting static file? That would slow down both the client and server.

Here's some more detail I managed to find on it (from /e/OS development): https://gitlab.e.foundation/e/backlog/-/issues/5765 https://gitlab.e.foundation/e/backlog/-/issues/5765 . At least it seems the IMEI is not included (at least in this specific example), but a serial number and a bunch of other information about the phone is.
