I understand where you're coming from, but to me that's a different case.
The whole purpose of this plugin you're describing is to collect data on
user activities. We have to decide if we want to add that capability at all
and it makes sense in this case (to me) to have that discussion before this
is added as a repo.

For me, if this is not an opt-in tool and it doesn't explain exactly what
it's collecting, who gets the data, and how it's used, then I'm absolutely
-1.
