Does Census collect info on the CPU the user has and which

If it is not collecting this type of information at the moment, I would
say it is critical information to grab.

Will one be able to opt out or easily choose what information is sent? What happens to a database entry when one changes a device (eg. GPU or RAM upgrade)?


A possible solution to some of the privacy issues:

Some care required in setup and maintenance.
