Self-hosted doesn't mean "look how nice I am". When a piece of tech is shit, it's shit whether it is self-hosted or not.
It’s not about being nice. It’s about me knowing where my data is.
Are you a cybersecurity expert? Can you guarantee that the data you'll collect with your secret agent glasses won't end up in the open?
Yes.
Unless someone phyiscally breaks into my house and steals my server. Which would require a very targeted attack which again is WAAY out of scope in my (and everyone else’s) threat model
You're a smart guy.
