I won't track your chats because I technically can't. The chats only go between your IO clients and IO server. There is no code in the plugin that relays the chats to anywhere else. I believe the same can be said for the underlying EngineIO. However, the beautiful thing with open source is, if anyone does not trust my statement, he/she is free to look in the source code (plugin.js) to search for suspicious code and comment out as much or as little of the code as desired. However, I don't have any such tracking code in my plugin.
