I personally don't like the collection of any information. Though it doesn't stress me.
Here in Australia there isn't a decent mirror to use (the ones listed on the opensuse.org site are dreadfully behind and are never updated). As such I manually select one that is fresh.
If a user has been smart enough to move away from Windows to run Linux as their desktop -- they are smart enough to figure out what mirror to use...
Actually, users should wast their time, looking for a mirror. They should just use download.openSUSE.org, which figures out what mirror to use ;) [download.opensuse.org by the way has seen more than 3 million hits within the last 48 hours -- hits in terms of directory listings and mostly redirects to our mirrors.] Regards Christoph
