I am shocked by this - the quote in below is very concerning:
“However, in 2024, the situation changed: balenaEtcher started sharing the file name of the image and the model of the USB stick with the Balena company and possibly with third parties.”
Can’t see myself using this software anymore…
It is indeed the best way, but somehow I am still anxious using this command, even after flashing countless USB drives 😅
I’ve made it a habit to type out the command without sudo at first, when it yells at me about permissions I am reminded to go back and double-check.
