Filtering error reports
-----------------------
+.. warning::
+
+ Filtering sensitive data is a hard problem, and it's nearly impossible to
+ guarantee that sensitive won't leak into an error report. Therefore, error
+ reports should only be available to trusted team members and you should
+ avoid transmitting error reports unencrypted over the Internet (such as
+ through email).
