Someone tests if Ubuntu is spying on you he was surprised by results:>Ubuntu doesnt spy on you>Firefox sends more data every run>Librewolf doesnt send any datahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdPt8WB1lZw
nobody thought ubuntu spies on you except for schizos
>>101159254>47k viewsCan I get rich just making 10 minute videos asking if every linux distro spies on you and the answer is always no?
>>101159254DUDE THAT'S CRAZY
>>101159482N word
I didn't watch the video but IIRC Ubuntu checks if it can access the Internet by querying connectivity-check.ubuntu.com regularly (just like Windows queries a Microsoft server to check for connectivity).Besides this, the spying allegations Ubuntu had were tied to the Dash's search bar returning online results (which could be sponsored I think?) back in the Unity days.

>>101159775Yea mine.
>>101159738He tested the search thing and no data was sent and they disable it by default like your picSo ubuntu.. isnt that SPYWARE they claim it to be
>>101160146thats not her eye color

>>101159254Canonical (Ubuntu) was caught using spy level telemetry and stopped. They can turn it back on once everyone forgets.
>>101159337You're not getting "rich" off of 47k views, that's for sure
>>101160371so what's the best distro for home use now, linux mint or manjaro maybe?
>>101160507Windows 10 LTSC IoT 2021.Maybe Linux will be good by 2032.

>no FUD>no fear mongering>no telling people what to think>pure knowledge reproducible by anyonesuch a great videobumping this so he doesn't have to buy an ad
>>101159279desu the first thing i thought was "is it because they just dont have the resourcses to store all the data?"
>>101162558what did he mean by this
why are linux bros like this? they just hate on the one single distro that is genuinely more polished and cohesive compared to the rest. because long ago canonical took a sponsorship? because they tried to create unity? because they made snap? it's still linux. you can install and uninstall whatever you want. figure it out.
>>101164601>because they made snapMostly this
>>101159254Terry Davis used Ubuntu.
>>101165140Before it turned to shit.
>>101159254ubuntu use telemetry by default you god damn nigger
>>101165282Actually it was shit when Terry used it due to the Unity garbage. Now it's pretty decent.
>>101166927This proven false. Telemetry is optional/opt-in at the install screen. Unlike, say, Firefox, which starts scooping up your data immediately without even asking.
Ubuntu spies you locally anyways
bumping to show newfrens what a quality thread looks like
