I’m not in the business of collecting user data and don’t really want to be. In regards to logs, we restart our containers every 6 hours and the logs are wiped at that time, so the furthest back logs I can actually find in our system are from an hour ago.

And nah, I wouldn’t give in. There’s no real reason to request that information, as accessing a url means absolutely nothing. I did so just now to verify things and the same could be argued by any real user (oh, I clicked on the link and didn’t know what it was going to). I very much doubt the past 6 hours of logs would be useful anyway, as by the time I got the request the logs wouldn’t matter anymore.

But, I’m still going to see if I can turn off logging for requests. I do not think we need them at all, and if we do, we can simply turn it on for a few minutes to get the info we need. But on this note, since this is all federated, your requests might show up in logs to other instances. Thus the weakness of the fediverse shows itself again. Any company can simply go to a different instance and try to request the same data. And we can’t stop that.
