Ask HN: Why is clockify not open source? 1 points by bakuninsbart 6y ago ↗ HN Or more generally, why do free, privacy-respecting tools choose to not go the open source route?
[–] the_hoser 6y ago ↗ If it's not open source, how do you know it's a privacy-respecting tool? [–] bakuninsbart 6y ago ↗ Because of their GT&C, I would at least hope that companies follow the law, and that the law is rather clear. This tool in particular (according to my google search) seems to be rather popular on HN, which increases my confidence a bit. [–] the_hoser 6y ago ↗ So... faith? I'm not accusing them of anything. Maybe they aren't harvesting your info.I'm just pointing out that maybe you're asking the wrong questions.
