Debian *downloads* security updates from its mirrors. There are very few packages in debian that *upload* your system's state, and that too by keeping user informed about it. Like say, debian popcon.
the point here is not of checking for updates or downloading some thing on the pc. as anurag rightly said the user is well informed. and since gnu/linux is gpl as it is the reason why m$ does updates and why gnu/linux packages are updated are totally different. m$ just wants to put more bugs in the system and take information from your system that's all, because it is their business.
But user has no chance of knowing what details Windows WGA is *uploading*. Forget about informing him.
yes anurag, right. and again this is not childish or linux fanatism, it is a reality. Krishnakant. -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
