Does Reaper phone home?
I'm in a Linux users group in my country, full of old school, paranoid people.
After reading the license agreement they asked me if Reaper phones home. I said that's very unlikely, but I thought I may as well ask here. |

only to check for updates of enabled that option. otherwise, no. But plugins used can do it as if REAPER is connecting. If you are paranoid just unplug the Internet or use a firewall

Why is what not mentioned in the EULA? That Reaper can optionally check for updates? Does every application capable of connecting to the internet need to explicitly state that? I mean, if it was compulsory then that might be another matter...

I see this everyday when I start up Reaper
Sorry not with the program just yet to let you know exactly where to look just keep an eye out for the info. Say's something like "Reaper checks for new versions on startup" or similar. Grinder LOL |
