Privacy Policy Question: I'm familiarizing myself with Prefect to see if we want to use it. One thing I'm curious about is that while disabling telemetry in my config.toml, it looks like my browser is still trying to block screen recording on localhost:8080, used by logrocket. Looking at https://www.prefect.io/legal/privacy-policy/,
The LogRocket software has a feature that allows for the “video-like” replay of a previous user session
it looks like disabling telemetry might not disable logrocket's session recording? Am I interpreting that correctly or am I missing a config to disable it? If anything, logrocket seems more invasive than GA telemetry. Please let me know if this belongs in a different channel. Thanks

Hi @sean williams - since Prefect Server and Prefect Cloud UIs share a codebase, the LogRocket library ends up getting included in both. Because of the way session recording is handled for privacy reasons (stripping PII and anything data related before any network requests are made, leaving application-related logic only), the library is included but in Prefect Server is never initialized, meaning no data is sent. Therefore there’s no impact when telemetry is turned on or off because the feature can’t be enabled in Prefect Server at all. A good way to test this is to deploy the Server in an airgapped environment. If you’re curious what that code looks like, you can see it here.
