Description gits1225 2013-06-27 12:52:32 UTC 
CTCP response can be used to personally identify someone across networks. Having options to configure the various CTCP reponses such as VERSION, TIME, PING, etc would protect privacy of users.

Reproducible: Always

You are able to customize CTCP response for VERSION but not for TIME and PING, I forgot to mention that in my earlier comment.

CTCP TIME, OK, that's a potential information leak. CTCP PING, the
information is from the sender, not your client.
