Aside from the already mentioned popcon (opt-in, defaults to "No") there may be packages in Debian with the purpose of collecting data about your system or software (think hardware monitors). One other example not mentioned yet is the 'reportbug' program. However, if any such program would send the information "outside" without prior information *and* consent, this should be treated as a bug.
