Did you look at the code like i asked last time ? IP's are not collected.
the data is transmitted by post so there is is no way to tie a UUID to an ip
and it is completely opt in you see exactly what is going to be sent before
it is sent.
So what you are arguing for is exactly what smolt does. Stop spreading FUD
now. you are perfectly free to uncheck smolt from your installs and not
participate. that is your right to do.
Seriously look at the code
