Well that’s great for Helium but that’s completely irrelevant.
Like I said, myDevices doesn’t support The Things Stack V3, and I will notify them again on the importance of being able to process data from The Things Stack V3.
We should probably make this enabled by default for public networks, like The Things Network, indeed. I filed an issue: Make default for public gateway status, location and contact info configurable · Issue #3712 · TheThingsNetwork/lorawan-stack · GitHub
There’s really no such thing as an owner. This was already the case with V2, but that was a bit hacky. There are collaborators only, and those can be users or organizations.
So we have two things now:
- Collaborators: users and orgs that have access
- Contact information: name, email and phone, that can be public or private
The third thing we may want to add here is the owner, or the sponsor in terms of TTN, which could be a user or an org.
What do you think @kschiffer ?
Gateway location and status is not considered personal data. We may, however, want to add some “circle” and round the exact coordinates, so that it is not exactly clear on which roof the gateway is installed. But I don’t see legal limitations here.
Indeed this is a use case that we should keep supporting. I included this in the issue I linked above.
