Research direction
Start by locating the YARA PII rule referenced in the issue and review how it is applied to product analytics use cases. Gather representative false-positive examples and define the expected behavior before changing the rule. Done means common analytics inputs no longer trigger the PII rule while genuine PII detections remain covered.
