achevez haven’t looked into the details about security, privacy etc. but seems interesting
achevez It does, yes. Will take a look but of course echo your concerns around privacy and security.
I’ve used it in the past. It definitely has potential if you have the grunt to spare. I remember when PS3 was supporting it for a while - an easy way to make a difference, I guess.
azizrahman Agree - provided the usage is responsible, and not for any hidden agenda, such as malicious usage (bot army for example)
