Google Analytics - Use by pfSense?

Thanks for the reassurance. Is there anything inside of the pfSense firmware that would make callouts to any 3rd party analytics?

TreeGrid plugin for jQuery

@stephenw10
Is the jQuery used for the abc backup when it enabled and sends your configuration file to the cloud with Plus? You know how it has to also check what’s stored there also? -

As far as I know there's not, but it's a bit outside of my area of expertise.

Note that it was removed as unnecessary: https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/commit/4e8f6cedd9c4b32b24ac3619f84e33a9a4708a29

Two weeks ago, if I am reading that correctly? If so this is a change in the upcoming 24.03?
Good to know it's being tidied-up.

Yup, they are removed in 24.03:

@stephenw10 Can I safely delete this in my 23.05.01 BE? This is the only version that supports my Crypto chip for offloading with OpenVPN. The new one won't run it.
-
You should be able to remove those unneeded files, yes.
-
This post is deleted! -
No you need the plugin just not the files shown here:
https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/commit/4e8f6cedd9c4b32b24ac3619f84e33a9a4708a29 -
The files removed in the mentioned commit don't actually do anything, so I'd recommend just leaving them in place, rather than risk removing one file too many and breaking things.
They'll automagically disappear when you upgrade to 24.03 anyway.
-
@kprovost Naaaa I am gonna delete that stuff but make a BE first. @stephenw10 said it was ok. I have Boot Environments so I can go back if needed.
They are Gone...

Ha! @kprovost is who I usually ask. He's at wizard level compared to me!

@stephenw10 Well someone had to make a sacrificial test.... might as well be me I haven't done one in a while. Seems ok. nothing has failed so far.

Lets to remind: in case with GOOGLE/YAHOO - we have a deal with SEARCH system (yes, all of them collecting our info, but THAT REGULATED BY LAWS), in case with BAIDU/MAILRU/YANDEX - WE HAVE A DEAL WITH SPY SYSTEMS FROM AGRESSIVE DICTATORSHIPS.
And most of them are DIRECT ENEMY of US. This mean Your personal enemy if You care about Your country.
So speaking about russian/china systems as 'analytic product' is totally incorrect and lead to direct damage in nearest feature.

I really hope after this Netgate at least remove any callbacks to KGB-related Yandex’s code.
You know just nothing about what is KGB-russia now.
But You must understand that right now this terrorist country already acting against US. You must be responsible about this understanding no matter are You reading news or not.

Hi Sergei, would you mind not spamming my thread please. Russia is bad, I get it, but this is a general pfSense question.
I'd be really grateful if you would self-delete your posts too.
Do You really need to hiding from U.S. Army Cyber School’s investors and management (as real example, they using Netgate appliances and software) the fact that
each time their students (no matter in school campus, at home or AT WORK IN ARMY FORCES OR DEFENSE GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENT after graduation)- click on (?) at the pfSense WebGUI’s any page;
- manually opening the pfSense Users Forum (to find problems solution);
THIS LEAD TO CALLING YANDEX CODE that pull all available information about network connection, network environment and computer device from which this call come, and all this information would be in real time collected, aggregated and being analyzed in GRU and FSB ?
Are You really not understanding how this dangerous for Your motherland?
P.S.
I more than sure that many students and US army IT security department specialists would be shocked to know that their computers regularly calling this peace of code from terrorists country that officially claimed by US government as one of two biggest US’s enemy… -
We already removed it, it's not in 24.03. And it didn't actually do anything anyway.

You would both blush and laugh out loud if you knew my background. But first, I don't have a 'motherland' as I both reside in and protect a constitutional monarchy.
Secondly, I am probably one of the very few on this forum who know exactly the scope of what various governments and allied nations do to protect their democracies from adversarial states. I have no need to speculate; I would not do so in my professional life and certainly not on a forum!
All you will get from me is what I stated earlier - Russia is bad, I get it, but this is a general pfSense question. Leave your politics at the door whilst you wipe your feet.

@stephenw10 I manually removed it, it’s just residue code unused. Thanks to who ever noticed this.
