IMHO the spyware angle was overblown. they added telemetry to the dev builds. the real thing I took issue with was adding a CLA after the fact

- lost_tourist 3y agoSo the stuff available on ubuntu/arch don't have spyware? I never heard about these changes, I did know some company bought it but didn't think much about it at the time as I don't use it a lot, but when I need it, it's quite handy
- asddubs 3y agoI haven't kept up with what happened since the original controversy, but at the time it was about telemetry in dev builds (i.e. building from the repo) only. In any case it doesn't have spyware unless you think firefox and various other programs are also spyware.
