Some information about BreakPad
Breakpad is an open-source multiplatform crash reporting system written in C++ by Google and the predecessor of Crashpad. It supports macOS, Windows and Linux, and features an uploader to submit minidumps to a configured URL right when the process crashes.
Essentially it’s a library that app developers use to get feedback on crashes in their apps. Yes it is written by Google - like most of the code in any Android-based ROM - but it’s open source and, if there were privacy concerns I guess they would have surfaced by now
Mmmmm, or maybe not. So better to have a look to it. Isnt?
The code is available here
I would be very surprised if the /e/ team have not already looked into this when deciding whether or not to include MagicEarth in the /e/ ROM
I want to believe too, but I guess that they also need help from the users to find out some issues. They are not perfect.
