Re: Collected Statistics (5 replies, posted in Misc)
I've read the code. I strongly recommend that you remove this functionality. Any application that deals with GPG should not be sending "anonymous pings" anywhere.
This is all the more important when your extension includes binary (non-script) components, because users cannot easily read the source unless they build it themselves.
Please don't take this as a criticism of FireGPG. I enjoy the program and find it useful. I am simply voicing concerns about one of the project's decisions, and I would like your reputation to stay as clean as possible.
