Maybe ignorance/transparency is the real problem. Canonical should be more informative about the "feature" when users install/update Ubuntu. There are ways to make Privacy policies understandable. Their current legal notice, see http://lwn.net/Articles/528810/ with the link to the lenghty Canonical privacy policy, is NOT helping users understand what the issue is.
