Right, agreed.

What I find particularly interesting in this case is the concern that Canonical might be having some benefit in accessing *anonymous* data about upgrade inquires in a public API. This really puzzles me, because EC2 is a proprietary system from Amazon, and Amazon is able to tell *exactly* how much disk space, disk io, network, CPU usage, which images, which kernels, etc etc, you are using. Please read that again: how much *you* are using. It surprises me that such a concern is being raised in this context.
