armbianmonitor -u incomplete obfuscation?

I've noted that 'armbianmonitor -u' will obfuscate some detail such as IPv4 addresses prior to uploading, but it misses similar additional detail:

  • IPv6 addresses, specifically 'global' scope, are left intact.  These are on interface configurations and in resolv.conf configurations at least.
  • 'domain' and 'search' directives in resolv.conf are left intact.  These can (would) include local domain names, which may be sensitive outside of a given environment.
  • username is exposed in showing group membership.  This may be minor but in some cases may be sensitive outside of a given environment, and perhaps can be shown anonymously such as '### Group membership of (logged in user) :  <group1> <group2> <group3>"?

 

It looks like the IPv4 obfuscation is very basic.  Are there plans or thoughts to improve this?

Would there be any reason to not obfuscate the additional items above, if someone wanted to give implementing this a shot?

most probably time constraint. So if you want to give it a go, please do so.

Every helping hand is appreciated
