Today's adventure in #darkpattern #surveillance comes from #Grafana #Loki. (Not a surprise, but this is why I run egress filters and dns #adblock in my #homelab clusters.)
I know not everyone agrees that #optout #telemetry is a dark pattern, but you might agree with me about this one after you see it documented:
> # -- Optional analytics configuration
> analytics: {}
Enlightening, isn't it? There are other empty blocks, but they are either fairly standard or are described elsewhere in the document.
If you are familiar with #helm, you won't despair because you have the power of `analytics.enabled: false`. That works on the rest of this chart and is the standard way to en/disable things.
It doesn't work that way.
Let me save you some time with the terrible new #github code search. Here is the actual syntax:
"analytics.reporting_enabled: false"
This was caught by #adguard and enforced by an egress #networkpolicy
