For some reason I have added intercom.io on my NoScript in the past. I DuckDuckGo-ed it and it returns: "Intercom is a priceless tool that helps us drive Sales and Support through every step of the funnel." I now will add sentry.io in my AdBlock+ list. I am getting a login in screen with nothing else. I value my privacy over your service. But I sincerely wish you the best on your endeavors.

Intercom is just a chat widget (and backend system) for customer support / sales, and Sentry is a kind of hosted error log. You can read both of their privacy policies. https://www.intercom.com/terms-and-policies#privacy https://sentry.io/terms/ Also if you're going to be a privacy zealot you might as well switch to uBlock Origin over Adblock+.

Is a chatbot necessary for your product to work? Is it possible to see and test your product without these adins? Seems odd that a blank screen is what happens when your chat widget / hosted error log doesn’t work.

The "need more pixels" message is quite frustrating. I get that it might be not practical to support small resolutions, but I was unable to see the demo even on "desktop mode" in landscape on a really big phone. How many pixels do you need? If it's still not practical to support that, a demo video player would be a great fallback.

You are absolutely right, we shall soon make a video for that scenario. For now we just bail if the device has less than 400x600 pixels "big" viewport, and if the "zoom" property is not supported. The demo would actually work fine but we feel the ux becomes too awkward :/

It's not (necessarily) a chat bot. I worked at a company that used Intercom, there were actually customer support reps responding to inquiries. It was actually a nice platform for triaging inquiries and support requests. You could even have side-conversations among employees in it, e.g. when one of our models gave weird predictions they would tag me in the conversation so I could tell them how to respond to the customer.

That said, having your website break when it's not loaded is bad.

No, if you have cookies disabled it can't log on to the live demo. As mentioned before, it's not a chatbot, it is just a way for you to get in touch with us right out of the app without opening an email client. If we are around we will also answer in the chat directly.

I really don't understand why you are blocking Sentry, it's for error/exception logging and makes the developers behind the product so much faster at fixing stange issues that you might run into.

Thanks! Sorry to hear, but we need those tools. We are an EU company and thereby regulated by GDPR, so we are obligated to treat your data very responsibly. You can learn more about the product (without intercom and sentry) on our blog: https://medium.com/amie-ai/amie-use-case-data-driven-winemak... Feel free to get in touch!

Not GP, but this is exactly the reply that I was hoping to hear. The GDPR has done more for human rights for the masses than any other initiative in the past 70 years.

Talk about being egocentric. The world has larger parts that don't even have access to Internet.

I'd say marriage equality goes deeper than GDPR.

I found it hard to figure out where this could fit in my job as a researcher. I mean even a potential use case. I was ready to give up, but since you are EU based I'll try harder now.

And also forced many websites to open with a popup 'Do you want to accept cookies?'. To the uninformed, could be a very mysterious message.
