+[2026-07-29 21:09] Ask HN: What do you use for privacy focused analytics?

Hi,

What do you use for website analytics? I am working on a small side project and I have used Google Analytics in the past but am looking for something a little more privacy focused, what do you use?

I would like to know how many people are coming to my site and a bit of a breakdown of geo, referrals, and such.

-Gary

[2026-07-24 18:41] Tell HN: Protect Privacy, Leave FCC Comment, Deadline Tomorrow

The deadline to comment on the FCC’s proposed rule to require government ID, physical address, and alternative phone number for every phone line in the US is July 25.

You can submit a comment by going to https://www.fcc.gov/ecfs/filings/express, selecting Express Comment at the top of the page, and entering 17-59 and 02-278 as the docket numbers in the first field.

Genuine (not AI generated!) personal accounts will be most compelling. If you are an American, please consider speaking out against this proposed change, which will be a disaster for personal privacy in the USA.
