I'd like to see Ubuntu not phoning home to be the default. I expect to
be explicitly asked if I want to send usage statistics/error reports or
search terms online. If that isn't possible for whatever reason, I
expect to see a big warning during installation stating what information
will be sent by default and to whom.
