Comment (by ashokrane):
Like @pixline, I too didn't care for this until now, assuming that there
wouldn't be any concerns/issues about user privacy. Not sure how would
number of registered users or blogs help, especially during version check.
A checkbox in the Settings -> Privacy page along with a page on what data
WP sends back would be ideal.
