Why Google Analytics is used?

Hey there,
Why this project uses Google Analytics?

It quite strange that anti-censorship project collect the data about it's users.

Dont think i will use GreenTunnel until this concern is addressed.

Hello, that was added at the start of the project to collect totally anonymous information about active users and which countries GreenTunnel was being used in, so I could focus on the areas most affected by censorship and filtering.

I think it's no longer needed since there's no active development or work on finding new bypass methods, so I'll go ahead and remove it from the code.

If anyone wants to take this on, feel free to submit a PR removing the Google Analytics integration — I'd be happy to review and merge it.

I see, thank you for your input and response.
