[bug] 3 telemetry apps remain enabled in Firmware v42

[jonas-klein]

In Firmware update "release-oculus-10.0-v42", the following apps seems to remain enabled:

• Unifiedtelemetry
• Gatekeeperservice
• Appsafety

Is there a way to disable the tracking in this firmware version? With Which Firmware version is Oculess work best?

Having the same issue on V42. I turned off the Wifi on my Quest2 for now, but that's not a good solution

Hi this likely isn't something that can be fixed by Oculess, because Meta is turning Unifiedtelemetry into a service and Appsafety hasn't been able to be disabled for over 10 versions and it introduces issues if it's disabled on the latest version. If you want you can block the apps that haven't been disabled with netguard.

Ok, i will try this. Is it known if another application send telemetry, like kernel level scripts?

Currently, i've blocked the whole internet access by setting a wrong default gateway. :s

I can confirm that i am unable to disable those 3 as well. I got so far too... Isnt netguard for android devices? Does anybody have a work around? I would love to use oculus quest 2 without worrying that zuckerberg is getting off watching my every movement.

@donttrackonme The Oculus Quest 2 runs an Android-based operating system: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meta_Quest_2#Software:~:text=The%20Quest%202%20runs%20an%20Android%2Dbased%20operating%20system. So yes netguard (https://netguard.me/) will run.
