Thanks Canonical for this great Telemetry master piece hidden in a Daily "News" (Message of the Day) deep inside the core of Ubuntu.
I found it active on all the Ubuntu laptop of my friends and coworkers, all Ubuntu servers from local ISP and my work. As well as on all Ubuntu flavours and Ubuntu derived Linux distros. It is also present in cloud-init images of major cloud providers, and all Docker images from Docker Registry based on Ubuntu. What a (s)hell for transparency! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1867424 Title: motd-news transmitting private hardware data without consent or knowledge in background To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/base-files/+bug/1867424/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
