Audacity is a poster child for what can be achieved with open-source software
"In upcoming Audacity releases, the only information sent by default is:
IP address (unavoidable): (e.g. "123.45.67.89").
User-Agent string: (e.g. "Audacity/3.0.3 (Windows 10_0_19042; x64)")
This occurs during a check for updates and can be disabled in Preferences at any time. "

Re: Water to 30 meters, but what about SALT water??
You wouldn't take an apple watch diving, it'd be no use. I take my tmx-upgraded luna and an old Vytec DS as a backup bottom timer with the plan on a slate. Never got the point of "diving watches" other than for posing. Get a computer, get a backup.
