I misunderstood the @Ledger multisig announcement the other day. I understood they've decided to charge like a Swiss private bank, but I've only just realized the extent to which they're not actually private at all...
I was also dismayed to see that this is still NOT a Ledger app which actually allows normal people securely sign txs, which was the entire issue in the first place. I refuse to call it "clearsigning". There's just "signing" and "yolo signing", and the ability to not yolo sign is not a premium feature - it's basically functionality without which your product is reckless and irresponsible
But back to the privacy: obviously I opted out of analytics, so imagine my surprise at all the tracker calls which @brave helpfully blocked for me
So what's Ledger trying to share here with the friendly data harvesting technologists at @datadoghq ?
* My personal Safe addresses
* My personal browser metadata
* My personal device metadata (screen resolution)
* My every move that I take on the app
What is this for? Ledger's own privacy policy states that sharing this kind of data requires consent, yet this is happening anyway to a company (Datadog, Inc.) not even mentioned in the privacy policy!
And yes, I fully expect this project will be dead on arrival because of insane pricing. But I'm more concerned that once again a major crypto player like Ledger (and EU based to boot!) doesn't care about basic privacy protection or following the most basic privacy regulations
@Ledger please do better than this, a privacy policy is not just a formality if you are a security company!
Please conduct small-scale testing as there are numerous existing issues. For instance, some proxy settings on the web client are not taking effect, and tokens redeemed/exchanged using a proxy cannot be sold. We are unsure how the sell-off transactions are being processed.
