  • Thanks!

    I'm just glad I didn't have to build another plugin to disable core features. So, thanks for saving me some time. :)

  • great plugin that disables core "functionality"

    Thank you for releasing this plugin, Dominik! I think the whole Privacy Tools thing is plugin territory to begin with, but that's probably a whole different story/discussion. Anyways, thank you for coming with this counter measure, to give people free choice again :) Cheers, Pieter

  • Perfect !

    Nice & Easy. BTW, as of today (WP 4.9.6 RC1), when the Privacy Tool erases a person's private data in comments, it changes the commentors name to Anonymous, which is fine, but it puts a link to it which points to https://site.invalid, which will result in a bunch of broken link, which of course Google will dearly punish you for all the broken links.
