journalctl or syslog in probe?

Hi! It would be cool to see the logs /var/log/syslog (relevant for DEB-distro) or journalctl (universally for all with systemd)

+1 journalctl can store logs for mutiple boots, than all of them or at least two last will be helpful

But they are huge privacy implications, because those logs could contain a lot of sensitive information.

Kernel related messages from the previous boot are already extracted from the journalctl and saved in dmesg.1 if available.

May be we need some subset of the journalctl messages (by prefix)? Dumping complete journalctl will be a huge security leak.

You can get the Linux kernel messages using this command. Please note that it could contain a lot of different private things, like serial numbers or the names of programs that segfault etc.

sudo journalctl --dmesg
