#### System Counting
Many Linux distributions sends some telemetry by default to count how many systems are using their software. Consider disabling this depending on your threat model.
Many Linux distributions send some telemetry by default to count how many systems are using their software. Consider disabling this depending on your threat model.
The Fedora Project offers a ["countme" variable](https://dnf.readthedocs.io/en/latest/conf_ref.html#countme-label) to much more accurately [count unique systems accessing its mirrors](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/DNF_Better_Counting) without involving unique IDs. While currently disabled by default, you could add `countme=false` to `/etc/dnf/dnf.conf` in case the default changes in the future. On rpm&#8209;ostree systems such as Fedora Silverblue and Kinoite, the `countme` option can be disabled by [masking the rpm-ostree-countme timer](https://coreos.github.io/rpm-ostree/countme/).
