Config option for a list of users to not collect logs for
Closed this issue · 10 comments
If a user wishes to opt out from log collection it would be good to have a option for this.
Should probably also disallow requesting any previous logs for that user, right?
perhaps, atleast requesting directly unless removing from channel logs is feasible during parsing. i have a script to remove user lines from channel logs with sed if need arises, but it's not super efficient for obvious reasons

I won't be doing any deletion, I think that is too risky. Most users probably have a bigger issue about the logs being so readily accessible via the website. Reading channel logs and finding the user line by line requires a lot more work for a bad actor to read logs.
How do I use this feature? I've noticed quite a few randoms with no logs so I'm assuming anyone can do it?
Only admins of the instance are able to optout users

Forgive my ignorance, but what does that mean exactly?
If you want your messages not be available or recorded anymore you need to contact an admin of the instance which you don't want to collect logs of you.

Ah ok so only admins can do it.
What exactly does "instance" refer to in regards to Twitch? I'm not really familiar with the term in this context. Thanks for the answers.
This is an open source software. Anyone can download and run it. And the instances are independent so the settings are not synced across them.
I don't even run the biggest instance for example

Makes sense, thanks for explaining. Much appreciated.
