It is totally unclear what this bug is for.

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => INVALID

Comment 2 drivalinux 2019-06-26 19:54:13 CEST
It is important because it deals with various topics, as: Human Rights of privacy.

The Mozilla Manifesto:

Principles


1 - The Internet is an integral part of modern life—a key component in education, communication, collaboration, business, entertainment and society as a whole.


2 - The Internet is a global public resource that must remain open and accessible.


3 - The Internet must enrich the lives of individual human beings.


4 - Individuals’ security and privacy on the Internet are fundamental and must not be treated as optional.


5 - Individuals must have the ability to shape the Internet and their own experiences on the Internet.


6 - The effectiveness of the Internet as a public resource depends upon interoperability (protocols, data formats, content), innovation and decentralized participation worldwide.


7 - Free and open source software promotes the development of the Internet as a public resource.


8 - Transparent community-based processes promote participation, accountability and trust.


9 - Commercial involvement in the development of the Internet brings many benefits; a balance between commercial profit and public benefit is critical.


10 - Magnifying the public benefit aspects of the Internet is an important goal, worthy of time, attention and commitment.

Human Rights: Very important.
Comment 5 drivalinux 2019-06-26 20:20:30 CEST
Brazil needs a system that represents Brazilians, and Mageia Linux is this system, based on Conectiva Linux.
Comment 6 David Walser 2019-06-26 23:58:20 CEST
Mageia takes privacy seriously.  If you know of specific issues regarding this or have specific suggestions, you can address those through the proper channel (specific bug report, starting a discussion on a mailing list or forum, etc.).
Comment 7 Dave Hodgins 2019-06-27 05:44:14 CEST
As a member of the board of directors of Mageia Linux, the council, and leader
of the quality assurance team, I'm stating that as far as I can see, Mageia
is compatible with the parts of the above, that apply to a Mageia. We do not
collect any information about our users, except as needed for those users to
use our services, (mailing lists, forums, bugzilla, etc.). While most of
the packages we distribute are open source, we do have packages that are not,
which are kept in a separate repository (nonfree) to easily allow Mageia users
who only want to use open source packages the ability to exclude the closed
source packages. Most of our users do use the nonfree packages though, as
they are required for optimum use of the hardware (video cards etc.) that
they have purchased.

Mageia is developed by a community of volunteers (there are no paid members),
for the benefit of those volunteers and anyone else who finds the distribution
to be useful to them.

Hope this answers your questions, though I agree with David Walser, that
a bug report is not the appropriate venue for this discussion.

OK. I understand.


Thank you!
Comment 9 drivalinux 2019-06-30 20:40:53 CEST
I'm using Mageia Linux 7 Final (released 23 June 2019 / updated 30 June 2019), and the system complies with this bug.


Thank you!
