Golang telemetry (again)
Golang telemetry (again)
There are no "news", but I'm worried about this business actually. I'm in knowledge that post already exists but I'm not clear at all.
Resuming: Google is trying to add telemetry to Go's toolchain (such as .NET and Dart/Flutter). It also added the GOPROXY environment variable that uses the Google's Go proxy to... Just collect more user data?
I'm a pretty beginner Go dev, but I'd like a toolchain without these telemetry or at least some instruction of how to opt out this thing.
Sorry for repost, but I don't find enough information in any other place. :(
You're viewing a single thread.
Honestly I wouldn't be surprised, I don't know much about Go but based on Google's track record it seems like the gameplan is to sell a bunch of user data to third parties and go rich
Lmao Hope you're not right (I mean, I hope no telemetry is imposed on my favorite programming language). But as you said, Google tracking/survillance history say that people privacy really don't concerns him
You can always switch to another language later on if anything goes south, since a lot of the thought process is the same behind the scripting ๐ค
Rust is my "alternative". But I see Rust pretty hard (is a system level programming language lol) and differently scoped.
I like some Go characteristics like garbage collection, simpler syntax, crossplatform, 1 second C bindings, and so on.
