As I understand it, this actually only sends hashes to Google when the first 32 bits of the hash match a list that is *pulled* to your system. And when there is a match, only those 32 bits are sent and the list of full 256-bit hashes with that prefix is returned. It's still worrisome from a privacy perspective, but not quite as scary as it would be to actually send a hash of every URL or to send full hashes. -- Matthew Miller -- Fedora Project -- <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> _______________________________________________ kde mailing list kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kde New to KDE4? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org
