It does say a couple of times though, that the application gathers the data, not Blizzard. It never actually says if it transmits the data back to Blizzard HQ, which is a pretty important if. Its not clear to me wether the data is analysed locally, or on a Blizzard-owned server. I find it a bit fishy, if the data was transmitted back, Hoglund would have made a huge song and dance about that particular point. Remember the furore with Lexmark?

Just not jumping to conclusions, that's all. Were the data is analysed makes a big difference.
