amgine,

Y'know, something which has been bothering me for years…

#Crash reporting is super useful. It highlights #critical #issues in #software. On #Fedora with #GNOME this can be set up to #automaticallyreport such issues.

GNOME assures me the report is #anonymous.

In order to submit the report, I must register, using verified personally identifying information.

No.

Everyone is held to the same #privacy standards. If I cannot submit with #anonymity, or you lie about it, you do not get my support.

@amgine GNOME does not have any crash reporting tool or service, so I assume this is Fedora-specific.

Yes, it's Fedora that uses ABRT (Automatic Bug Reporting Tool)

amgine,

@gnomelibre @ebassi

Thanks to both of your for pointing this out. Odd that the Diagnostics settings text for Problem Reporting links to GNOME's privacy page:

"Sending reports of technical problems helps us improve Fedora Linux. Reports are sent anonymously and are scrubbed of personal data. Learn more

@amgine @gnomelibre it is indeed odd; may be worth pointing out on the Fedora issue tracker or on their discussion forum: https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/
