It's just casually violating your privacy.
I disagree that the safebrowsing part is not serious, especially considering that it continues to send a message there on every new page you visit. Best case the only thing that happens is that Google checks that you aren't visiting a dangerous site. But really? Does anyone believe that Google does not store this data to monitor browsing habits? I'm not saying I have a solution; unsafe sites are a reality, and a static database delivered with the package is just not good enough. But it would be good to try to solve this. Tor seems like the best service for the job. However, auto-connecting every Debian machine with Iceweasel installed (which is pretty much every Debian machine) to Tor may not be the best idea either. Are there any other ideas? Am I the only one who thinks this is a big deal? Thanks, Bas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
