Hi,

I’ve seen stremio pop up a few times in my feed recently and decided to give a look. It’s seems like I could use it with torrentio, but my concern is that the apps comes with a few trackers, amongst which 3 facebook trackers (share, login & analytics).

I don’t know much about trackers, how they work, and what I should worry about, so I mostly try to avoid them, but could someone here tell me if I should worry about these facebook trackers (I don’t use fb, but since it’s pretty much the Devil itself…), and maybe suggest resources on how to get informed on trackers, what they do, and when to worry about it?

Thank you for your help.

Cheers,

      I do not know of the inner machinations of Stremio, nor do I possess the where with all to alter it’s code. If that is knowledge you could share with the OP, that makes Stremio compatible with privacy, security, and anonymity, then please do share.

        Now that I know more about blobs, I hear they are encrypted. I wonder what that looks like when you open code in an IDE. So like, maybe you can read it until a certain line, and then it turns into some type of encoded gibberish. I wonder if you could delete the gibberish and it still work.
