@basyl No, this isn’t from any libraries. Again, this is essentially just a generic list of trackers, including things used almost exclusively on webpages. I’d guess you just opened some webpage snapshots. Those open in a webview, and they can make some connections to the website due to prefetching or resources that weren’t fully embedded. We take steps to block all external connections in the desktop app. We can see if we can do the same on Android. But absolutely not trackers from the app.

@basyl Some sort of misunderstanding here. Our Android app does not have trackers. We use Google’s default crash reporting library — that’s it.

What is this screen? This just seems like a generic list of trackers (e.g., Disqus is for comments on webpages).

@adam42smith Or skip a few steps and just do it within Zotero

@andybaio Pretty sure bitcoin.pdf was the first file that came up in Google for “pdf” around that time — at Zotero we started asking people to use it for testing in late 2016, without having the slightest interest in Bitcoin. Before that we used fw4.pdf, the IRS W-4 form, for the same reason, despite being similarly uninterested in tax withholding.
@adam42smith Definitely a mistake. But in practice most clients will just accept 2xx for a GET.
We’re hiring for a bunch of new roles! If you’re a developer, designer, or Zotero Expert, see if there’s a role that’s right for you: https://www.zotero.org/jobs
