Just in case, you are not doing this already: You might like to mask out the last octet of visitors IPv4 addresses or the last twelve octets for IPv6 addresses. This still allows useful logging for statistics, but makes identification of single users pretty hard. TTBOMK, this is what is considered GDPR compliant, but IANAL and IANADPO. > This network request can be turned off by adding options.motd_url=None to > your ~/.visidatarc. Easy! If there were a global configuration file, such as /etc/visidatarc, setting the motd_url could be done also as part of the Debian package installation using "debconf". Maybe at some point, you could even add a startup wizard/dialog: "Download motd files? [Always] [Yes] [No] [Never]" > The process to get a package accepted into Debian was > brutal. What? I cannot imagine, that it was in any way difficult! :-) Note, that your statistics usage.tsv seem to end on 2023-04-09. Did I miss the apocalypse? Btw. you can get a statistics about installed visidata packages here: https://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=visidata popcon (popularity contest) is opt-in, i.e. the real number is higher.
