+#+title: Google analytics alternatives
+#+date: <2022-02-15>

+[[https://techcrunch.com/2022/01/12/austrian-dpa-schrems-ii/][Austrian]] and [[https://www.politico.eu/article/french-privacy-regulator-rules-against-use-of-google-analytics/][French]] regulators ruled against Google Analytics based on
+GDPR and data privacy. Another big problem with Google Analytics is
+that it is nonfree. There are free alternatives like [[https://matomo.org/][Matomo]] (GPLv3+)
+and [[https://plausible.io/][Plausible]] (AGPLv3+). I used to self host Matomo and it was quite
+decent, but I would like to try out self-hosted version of Plausible
+soon due to its simplicity and lightweight.
