#3595: GTK - Thin Client Mode Leaks IP To Trackers
-------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
Reporter: ilikenwf | Type: bug
Status: new | Priority: major
Milestone: not | Component: GTK UI
applicable | Keywords: leak, privacy, security, safety,
Version: 2.1.0 | icon, thin client
-------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
I noticed hits in my firewall detecting a torrent user agent, and I find
that Deluge in thin client mode is trying to use the machine controlling
the remote seedbox, instead of having the seedbox proxy the tracker icons
for the client.

The icons aren't even really necessary if you're trying to see the
trackers in use, so I request either an option to disable the use of the
icons, or an option to disable fetches for the icons. This is ridiculous
and I hope it is an oversight or mistake, and not something that is
purposely there to expose users downloading Linux ISOs like myself.

Linux ISOs... Right... ;)

Thanks for reporting. I'll have a look.
