As a plea to users of Fedora:

If you get notifications from ABRT, the Automatic Bug Reporting Tool,
please spend a bit of time on submitting the _complete_ report instead
of only enabling shortened reports. Sometimes the shortened reports
may be interesting, but in enough cases they are useless.
FWIW: I once more experienced abrt to send report without user consent.

This is completely inacceptable, these days - I therefore decided to pull the plug and uninstalled it on all of my systems. I recommend everybody doing the same, who is concerned about data privacy.

(No, I don't have a reproducer. These incidents happened several times at occasions since I have installed f22).

Also please don't forget entering a minimum of details, such as whether
the problem/crash is reproducible and how often it can be reproduced,
and how to reproduce it.
Well, you should start think about the causes - IMO, these are very obvious: Abrt's GUI non-suiteable for ordinary users.
