#+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.
