Statping: Frontend sends info to sentry.statping.com without my permission

Created on 21 Oct 2020  Â·  3Comments  Â·  Source: statping/statping

The Statping frontend is very buggy and generatrs a lot of errors. It makes Statping completely useless, but that's not why I'm here. I accidentally discovered that it's sending error info to sentry.statping.com and I have not found any way to disable this. It exposes IP/domain/UA for you — if I was setting up some very secret server it wouldn't be very good. Of course, I can block everything with a firewall, turn off internet or even patch the frontend code, but it would be better if Statping behaves good by default and only sends info after my permission.

The "Send Error Reports" option does nothing. If it's not related to Sentry — what does this option actually mean? I suggest renaming this option to clarify its behavior.

(Also some small info leaks to Google and GitHub due to sample services. However, this is not so important because I can simply delete them after installation. Although I would still prefer Statping to be completely empty after installation.)
