Skitch

Ced reviewed on 25 Apr 2012

Excellent tool, but no possibility to avoid phoning home, except with "Little Snitch". Should we accept this because it is free ?

To Y-Guy, yes I do realize and I have no problem with this functionnality I do no use. Skitch could connect only when uploading pictures to it's servers, and not at every start of the application. So if a user don't need to upload pictures on Evernote Cloud, there is no necessity to connect there. This is a question of privacy respect.

This is a very nice application, but why does it need to connect to skitch.com every time the app is launched ? There is no option to disable this.

Is skitch.com collecting data of their users ?

Paperless

This application has some unique features, like the ability to define your own meta data. It would be perfect if a server edition existed.

Civilization V

Ced commented on 17 May 2011

I expected to buy simply a standalone game. But "Civilization" cannot be launched without "Steam". Steam requires an Internet Connexion. I don't want the software editor, Epic, to be informed each time I'm launching a single user game. Yes there is an offline mode for "Steam". But all this way of acting makes me doubt of Epics's ethics.

Google Chrome

Installs the "GoogleSoftwareUpdateAgent" without warning the user. No possibility to deactivate this agent which will run as soon as you computer starts.

What data is transmitted to big brother ? Maybe better not to know...
