Which part do you not understand when I say I NEVER used any keylogger. This is the only reason I didnt comment on any of your comments. Please edit or remove them.
IMHO all static websites have analytics, yes the HTML one's too. Browser extension need tools like analytics 100x more.
If we look at any authentic reference (Ex: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Analytics#Privacy_issues) we will find only when an app associates behaviour-analytics with attributes such as IP Addresses and Geolocation data, it may debate privacy issues, otherwise not.
If you see the word 'privacy', it only activates when an individual is being talked about. There are no specific users on this app, no email id, no unique id. All requests are considered similar irrespective of origin.
1). more than 20 1-ratings (You cannot see these 20-25 negative ratings as there are were no text reviews written with it.) 2). mass complaints sent to Google that day. 3). And my app rating came down from 5 to 4, thats a huge setback on the competitive end. (Lost the app's repo which took an year to build) 4). Few false reviews which have been cross-upvoted so all new users sees them on top. And my reply down-voted by the same group that it was removed completely by Chrome.
And there has never been such thing as Inspectlet in the app, and also the person who commented this is not communicating with me, so I would let this one go. And thus no need for that statement. Will make the app opensource, so this will never be an issue in the future, "hopefully".
Chrome doesnt allow extensions to get that data unless the extension asks for daring permissions like "Access your data on all websites".
Currently the app asks for no such permission. There were some features I planned to integrate like user right-click a text and click on 'send to Sticky note', but now terrified whether to even ask for such permissions.
Also I enquired about the privacy issue in Google Analytics, only thing I got was: - "Google tracks that visit via the user's IP address in order to determine the user's approximate geographic location."
I am using is custom events. Lets say I do not use Google-Analytics but my own server who just record custom events (anonymized IP Addresses) then the app will be considered private and secure.
Read Privacy Issue section on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Analytics#Privacy_issues.
What I feel from all these is - it is justified to call the app secure as its about the user data, not anonymized behaviour analysis. That is only for app improvement, and independent of a particular person (ie. privacy).
Not sure myself about the term "Cyber Bullying", but I used this word because I got:
1). more than 20 1-ratings (You cannot see these 20-25 negative ratings as there are were no text reviews written with it.)
2). few complaints+emails on the same day.
3). And my app rating came down from 5 to 4, thats a huge setback on the competitive end. (Lost the app's repo which took an year to build)
4). Few comments which have been cross-upvoted so all new / old users sees them on top. And my reply down-voted by the same group that it was removed completely by Chrome. Today I had to reply on it for the third time. And I do not have bandwidth to keep refreshing page every few hours.
Just like 10 out of 1000 people click on this button so I should remove it. 400 out of 1000 people use this feature, so I should improve it.
How about educating end users on the analytics vs privacy part.
If the developer is not meant to be trusted, then what is a good solution to this problem? Not everyone would want to open-source their app/game.
