    It’s important to note that, if you’re using a non-commercial license, you cannot opt out of the collection of anonymous usage statistics.

    Goodbye

      If you’re going to use it, you’d be paying for it one way or another; either through money or privacy. Par for the course.

        Right, so it’s not free. Goodbye

          Free as in free beer, not as in freedom. You can technically block undesired (or all) outgoing connections via opensnitch/portmaster, tho.

          It was never to your definition of free, so you were never going to be using it in the first place. Don’t need to say goodbye when you were never here.
