Hi friends,
We have released OONI Probe Mobile 2.7.1 (https://ooni.org/install/mobile) which includes the following noteworthy changes:
* We have removed the "Include Network Info" setting (which enabled you to opt-out of ASN collection): Now ASN information (https://ooni.org/support/glossary/#asn) is collected by default. We decided to do this because measurements that don't include ASN information are non-actionable.
* We have removed the setting which enabled you to share your IP address (on an opt-in basis): We decided to remove this setting because we think the potential risk associated with sharing IP addresses is greater than the benefit (over the last years, when users chose to share their IP addresses, we did not find them particularly useful).
Through these changes (in OONI Probe Mobile 2.7.1), we aim to make OONI Probe measurements both more secure and more actionable. :)
As you will see in the mobile app, we no longer have the "Sharing" setting (since the above options have been removed), and we have moved the "Publish Results" setting (which is enabled by default) under the Privacy tab of the app.
Happy to address any questions.
Thanks,
Maria.
