Too few sampled comments (3) to say how often HN recommends it.?

Why HN links it

HN readers link squeaky.ai, a cookieless, privacy-focused analytics product marketed as an alternative to Google Analytics. Comments cover its GDPR and hosting questions and a broken install-code link.

Summarised by Claude from a sample of 3 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.

  3. FYI https://squeaky.ai/legal/gdpr I believe using Amazon AWS already disqualifies you from being fully GDPR-compliant. Same issue as Shopify has with using US CDNs: https://lsww.de/shopify-illegal/ Since your core sales feature is "privacy friendly" which will surely be appreciated in the EU, it might make sense to offer local hosting or self-hosting.
