Nothing really prevents f-droid from this, right?

@lanodan
Well, they shouldn't.
After all, their Open Source ;-)

@Tommy LOL

Nothing, absolutely nothing prevents from doing open-source surveillance.
Specially server-side and where the package manager (f-droid application) fetches from the same server and that android devices are easily fingerprintable (most will happily tell you the model in the user-agent for example).

@lanodan @Tommy The user agent is "F-Droid %versionname"
