Thank you for pointing this out. We'll look at this and see if we can enumerate the OTAs on which Scout works as you suggest. I can assure you that the extension collects only what it needs to do in order to function.

Cyclist here. It's a different type of vehicle than a leg-powered bike and therefore not cheating at all... unless you're recording your rides on Strava, then it is. More bikes is a very good thing, whether human or human/ele
