Hi Jared,
Not worrying about it works for me :)
Do we simply add a terms of service / privacy question to the faq? Is
that something you could do based on what you've pulled together for
the Hub service? or do we need to consult lawyer, etc?

From experience on other projects, my feeling is that it's a really
bad idea to interrupt the download process with an EULA step. It
sends away a large percentage of "lemme just try out this out" type
of downloaders. The user experience "feels" wrong when this is
done because it is so unusual.
I support letting users know about the software-update check, which
can be used as a callback. But I think it's even better to not
worry about it, and place the info perhaps into the faq. Software
update services are pretty standard now and well-enough understood
that people are happy to have it run, and have it on by default, as
long as it's possible to shut it off.
