Telemetry in front-end tools
Telemetry?
No, thanks 👋
More and more front-end tools use telemetry to track how they are used.
Assuming no personal identifyable information is saved, this is legal. But by not clearly notifying they start to collect data, they leave many users unaware.
Let’s take back our data!
