I was happy to see that my hostname from the system logs was pruned to "hostname". Great! However, there are some logs that complain about /home/FOO user ... we SHOULD NOT leak a user's $HOME directory contents (a potential list of local user accounts) into these reports. This MAY be considered as sensitive information. The JournalErrors.txt should prune it. Example of CULPRITS: {{{ Dec 20 21:39:20 hostname com.ubuntu.OneConf[3069]: WARNING:oneconf.hosts:Error in loading other_hosts file: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/FOO/.cache/oneconf/1dfe6d2e52223c637c7bddd900000002/other_hosts' Dec 20 21:39:33 hostname com.ubuntu.OneConf[18688]: WARNING:oneconf.hosts:Error in loading other_hosts file: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/BAR/.cache/oneconf/1dfe6d2e52223c637c7bddd900000002/other_hosts' }}} The suggestion here, is simply to also prune out usernames from ANY "/home/%USER" or "~%USER" type regexes.
