Knowing your exact location and your exact balance, while having a history of leaking customer data, is just plain scary.
Not only that, but sharing that data with all the third parties which are integrated in to Ledger Live. Has anyone got Ledger Live installed who can tell us exactly who they are? (I'm definitely not installing it to find out!) According to the menu on the left of this page (https://support.ledger.com/hc/en-us/articles/4413768794257-Managing-NFT-in-Ledger-Live) they will be sharing your data with Coinify, Wyre, Changelly, Paraswap, and Lido (I've not even heard of some of these). And as we discussed earlier there is now a Coinbase integration as well. Who else are they sharing your info and data with?

It's possible that other devices are doing something similar, but I know that Trezor Suite have built in Tor privacy option.
I'm becoming more and more skeptical of all hardware wallets as time goes on, given the constant issues with privacy and security which keep arising. I still use a couple of brands for smaller amounts of coins, but the bulk of my holdings are either on paper wallets or encrypted airgapped wallets.

And the official Ledger account replies to all the people singing its praises with meaningless hype, and ignores the people who question the privacy or KYC implications. Roll Eyes
