AFAICT Roku sends logs to two separate endpoints, so blocking those visa pihole can give you some protection, however, it's hard to tell if any data is being sent to raw IP addresses.

You are 100% correct about this. People have appeared on "People you may know" when I have absolutely zero connection to them other than I have chatted to the on What's App... I'm afraid I may have to stop using the service soon... was great until FB bought it.

Sounds like you need to simplify. It sounds extreme but what about rebuilding your application in a proven, stable and maintainable web framework, then deploying to the native platforms using something like Cordova. That way, you only have one codebase to maintain.

Also, be careful about baying to your customers every whim. They don't always know best. Keep your product true to its roots (the reason they came to you in the first place). Provide rational and reasonable explanations why you won't be implementing their request. If they have a really good idea then say that you'll put it on the roadmap.

Matt, I refuse to use Freelancer or endorse it until the murky issue regarding the drivers licence is cleared up. Why was it not accepted as valid identification?
