HalalDL v0.6.1 — Privacy and Security Maintenance

This maintenance release removes the app's legacy telemetry path, makes website-to-app links queue-only by default, and tightens the desktop security boundary. Your downloads, history, presets, settings, and local media remain intact.

Privacy maintenance

• Desktop telemetry collection and transmission have been removed.
• Startup cleanup deletes only the legacy telemetry.json identifier file.
• Downloads, history, presets, settings, cookies, completed files, and other local media are not removed.

Safer website-to-app links

• halaldl://download?url=... queues a valid HTTP or HTTPS link without starting it automatically.
• Automatic starting requires the explicit start=1 parameter.
• Invalid schemes, embedded credentials, malformed input, and oversized URLs are rejected.

Desktop hardening

• Tightened the Tauri content security policy and capability permissions.
• Restricted file-opening behavior to approved local paths and supported targets.
• Existing local-first download, queue, history, preset, and library workflows are preserved.

Choose a download

• Full is recommended for most Windows users and includes the broadest bundled tool support.
• Lite is smaller and expects more supporting tools to be managed separately.
• Portable is a self-contained ZIP with manual folder replacement for updates.
• Installers are unsigned, so Windows SmartScreen may appear. Verify downloads against SHA256SUMS.txt when you need checksum assurance.

Package-manager availability

• GitHub Releases is the immediate, authoritative source for v0.6.1 assets and SHA256SUMS.txt.
• WinGet updates for Full, Lite, and Portable have been submitted and may remain on v0.6.0 until catalog review completes.
• The Chocolatey Full-package update has been submitted and may remain on v0.6.0 until community moderation completes.
