I wasn't a fan of including the geolocation details in the policy.
Now the policy requires upkeep based on Fedora technical
implementations.  The same applies to NM-c-c-f[*].  I'd love it if we
could avoid packing more of these into the policy.

In any case, I believe this clause would cover the plugin:

"Fedora's online services automatically capture IP addresses. We use IP
addresses to:
...
* Help ensure the security of your interaction with our services"

Perhaps a wiki page for privacy increasing customizations is called
for, where we could consolidate such settings or tweaks.
