This is a terrible 'feature' and I have to second many of the concerns voiced here.
I don't mind anonymous data being sent if I asked up front (a la the packages I install) but you shouldn't bounce these requests off your server in order to collect user data, reduce functionality (@Lenar) and add advertisements. Community based software should support the community first and have that community in their minds at all times. One thing we can all probably agree on is this 'feature' doesn't add value to the user which should be the deciding factor for a automatically included 'feature'. Lets get rid of this for this release and rethink our approach for the next one. -- multisearch add on blocks the functionality of firefox location bar https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/402767 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
