Also the claim that Ubuntu popcon get 2.8 millions submissions daily is completely overblown.
First popcon only submit once per week, not per day, and second, while Debian popcon remove submissions that have not been updated in the last 20 days, Ubuntu popcon does not do so.
This means 2.8 millions in the grand total of Ubuntu installations that reported successfully at least one, since
the start of popcon.ubuntu.com about ten years ago.

Debian popcon struggles to handle 200 000 submissions by week already. It is unclear how Ubuntu popcon handles it because the website is not regularly updated (see the "Last generated on Wed Jun 22 15:09:05 2016 UTC.") which suggest that the daily processing either fail or is not done at all.
