WebSphere Liberty 是否将使用数据发送给 IBM?

Does WebSphere Liberty send usage data to IBM?

我想知道 WebSphere Liberty 是否正在收集使用数据并将其作为匿名数据发送给 IBM。

如果是,

不会,除非您通过支持票据有意这样做,否则不会将使用数据发送给 IBM。

我在与收集数据相关的许可证中唯一能找到的是一般性的IBM Customer Agreement

11.1 Verification Process

Licensee agrees to create, retain, and provide to IBM and its auditors accurate written records, system tool outputs, and other system information sufficient to provide auditable verification that Licensee's use of all Programs is in compliance with the ILAN Program Terms, including, without limitation, all of IBM's applicable licensing and pricing qualification terms. Licensee is responsible for 1) ensuring that it does not exceed its Authorized Use, and 2) remaining in compliance with ILAN Program Terms.

Upon reasonable notice, IBM may verify Licensee's compliance with ILAN Program Terms at all sites and for all environments in which Licensee uses (for any purpose) Programs subject to ILAN Program Terms. Such verification will be conducted in a manner that minimizes disruption to Licensee's business, and may be conducted on Licensee's premises, during normal business hours. IBM may use an independent auditor to assist with such verification, provided IBM has a written confidentiality agreement in place with such auditor.

所以 "Upon reasonable notice" 可能意味着很多事情。因此,我认为如果他们通过许可证更新或类似方式请求您的许可,他们可以合法地收集这些信息。

"may be conducted on Licensee's premises" 并未排除在场外收集电子数据的可能性。

综上所述,我不认为他们现在正在收集匿名数据,但在合法的情况下他们可以通过正确的通知收集数据。
