All data are transiting via US servers? #415

I've made a test App via a rented VPS using the Typescript SDK (valid TLS certificate, directly on port 443 with a public IPv4)

I'm actually very concerned about the usage of this after noticing in my firewall that my Android device never connected to my server but the VPS itself connected via Websocket to your US server and all data is passed via your servers with no way of knowing what's happening with our data.

I really do not understand why you have to relay all our data and not directly allow the Android phone to connect directly to the Endpoint (the "App"), this seems to be privacy nightmare, all texts are transiting through AugmentOS servers, this should be disclosed on the Github page, what if there is really sensitive data being passed?

Is there a way to avoid this and remove AugmentOS as a middleman for the data itself? The developer console I do understand why for App management, but the data itself, I do not understand why it doesn't transit from Android to the Endpoint via WSS.

Thank you.

Also I must add that the latency being added because of this method is really high, from 50ms to 400ms+, why via a specific country like the US?

I sense a GDPR violation.
