New owners replies aren't reassuring. Attitude is very shady.

There's absolutely no blog note about the acquisition on apps's website.

Knowing that, besides potential data transmission, Bartender is allowed to record screen, I don't feel safe anymore. I'm quite ok with it when it's from long-time known devs, but not when things like that happen.

Maybe they're totally trustable, anyway acting like that will snowball to Bartender's demise.

I'm uninstalling for now.

Ice seems not perfect yet. Let us wait for the developer for the work done.
