This is the sad true. Nowdays, sdk haves tons of these analytics and telemetry. According to Dart documentation we can disable its analytics. And the first time the CLI is executed, this analysis is not used (respecting the opt-out concept). Is at your discretion trust Google’s words (or investigate Dart’s source code to find out if it is true or not, or if there are even other unethical means, although I find it a bit unlikely). If you wanna do the second, You can use something like CatFish to help you.
I think C and C++ are safer options, because GNU doesn’t use this technology in particular. But Dart are obviously using opt-out telemetry. You should disable it manually. Idk the case of Ruby, sorry :(
That’s true (also with other software that isn’t for development). But this is not the only tool there. Just see crates.io and pkg.go.dev registries.
I think the only way to get “anonymously” some modules, libraries and frameworks is trough Tor.
Yes. See Docker stuff and NPM stuff.
So, that means telemetry is optional? How I ensure is currently active or not? Just wanna an explanation. I (as I said) searched about this thing and got almost nothing :(
it’s where all of the mod version is cached, so any time anyone builds a Go package from source, calls are made to the mother ship.
I don’t understand it at all. Why I’ll need something like that?
Thank you for your response!
I searched A LOT about this information and got no information (but misinformation) about. Plus just look at this decision.
What that means? I need to do a torsocks
to every single command I type? (That last is just sarcasm. Please, I’m not so paranoid (by now))
edit: a single web search reveals that Flutter has indeed Google telemetry enabled by default. developing your web searching skills is a good habit for developers.
I already know this, just flutter config --disable-analytics
solve this problem.
But there are more than this. For example, Flutter itself doesn’t work correctly. It needs the Android SDK (that is installed separately). And with this you need to accept the licenses and other stuff. That’s the point.
compile the most basic of flutter apps or some demo and see if the app makes any kind of request to the internet.
How can I intercept this traffic quickly?
These are pretty good news! Thank you for explain in a better form the context of situation.
Actually, sounds cool. Now feel sure I can run cs1.6 no steam with 18 trojans detected by VirusTotal from a pakistani server and don’t scare me because I will use Bottles into a Arch Linux Virtual Machine lmao (this is just a sarcasm, in any case, I also bought cs1.6. I think there are only hackers anyways)
Because Bottles is distributed via Flatpak, which is…
Safe. Sandboxed.
Because…
Your bottles are isolated from the system and will only hit your personal files when you decide.
The full-sandbox is provided and pre-configured only using the Flatpak package (highly recommended).
All other packages still have access to the partial sandbox which isolates the bottle files and prevents them from accessing your homedir.

I don’t trust in any Windows Application at all, but I think this doesn’t mean I need to live under a rock. This is the reason because I open this Post. So thank you for you help and your time :) You are very cool.
I think is a good option play videogames in a Virtual Machine when is possible. But I just want to feel “more secure” when I need to play in my host machine, for example, using sandboxing.
This proposal is meaningless bullshit. I can’t believe we are one of the the oldest species on earth and they keep coming up with such ridiculous ideas. This is a NO from me for this ridiculous proposal.
