  • When will it be possible to test Logtotal?
  • first phase, sanitizer is already on GitHub, and will be rolled to the website tomorrow. Rollout will have a few phases, and once it is live there are no conditions to test, just visit the website and try it out. there's also a sample log file preloaded to see how engine works.
  • The stable token part is interesting. It solves something that simple redaction doesn't, since you can still tell that the same value appeared in multiple logs.

    But I wonder if there's a trade-off here: repeated tokens also reveal that two events are related, even though the original value is hidden. For example, you could still see that the same user/email/customer appears many times.

    Do you see this being handled with different keys/scopes for different datasets or tenants, or is the assumption that correlation across the whole dataset is desirable?
