Bug description:
When I apport-bug certain packages such as firefox for example, it
uploads the WifiSyslog.txt file.
The WifiSyslog may contain a list of all system connections enumerated
in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections, i.e. all SSIDs the user has
ever connected to that are found in the system-connections. This is a
serious privacy risk and completely unnecessary information for most
bug reports.
Should either remove WifiSyslog as a requirement for packages that
don't need it (should I report this to
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/ ?), or redact
information that may contain usernames and SSIDs from the log file.
