The focus of this version has been to bring back and improve a feature we originally removed in version 1.3 of the client: Anonymous Usage Statistics. With this feature enabled, you will send anonymous usage statistics to us, which will help us get better insight into how the client is used to better guide us when improving the client or designing new features. This is an opt-in feature, no information will be sent to us unless you opt in.
This usage data is entirely anonymous and does not include any sensitive information such as your IP address, which server you connect to, or which websites you visit.
For a full list of what data is submitted to us with this option enabled, please refer to the corresponding FAQ article: Explanation: Collect anonymous usage statistics
