Hi, I completely agree with Irvin here. This proposal is extremely uncomfortable for me, even after reading about Rappor, I share the same concerns others have expressed in this topic about privacy and user expectations.
I think we can be creative if the problem is that we need to understand which sites are not performing OK on Firefox without compromising our values. Sending sensitive information as opt-out is not, in my opinion, the way to go. Cheers.
