Whoa.  While the rhetoric has been a little heated, I think that
deeptech71's point is that it is precisely the ubiquitousness of GA
that makes it more dangerous.  This response adds to the heat but does
not respond to his technical points.

I'm no conspiracy theorist, and GA's reports are excellent, but if
there is some way for the FreeBSD project to get 80% of the
functionality without sending the data to a third party, I'd be in
favor of that.
