GZDoom is a source port of Doom based on an older source port, ZDoom.
</p>
<h2>Spyware Level: <font color=yellowgreen>Low</font></h2>
<p>
GZDoom contains telemetry that it reports back to the developers containing general information about your Operating System, CPU Cores, and OpenGL compatiblity.<sup><a href="#1">[1]</a></sup>.
GZDoom's developers do not seem to be very good at handling privacy concerns (After all, if this was privacy-concious, it would be opt-in...) and so if you decide to use this program, you
should make sure to compile it with the telemtery disabled, and you should make sure that this is the <i>only</i> spyware in the program- there may be more spyware implemented in the future.
