Is this the same cheat as with Fedora's "installation ids" and Firefox's
"phone home" features?

This stuff is activated by default, which means at the point a user
deactivates them, he already is "collected".

This metrics system will be really disabled until it is enabled.

This only works because the dnf installation counting metrics are enabled by default, though. Without the dnf metrics to compare to, we wouldn't be able to know how many users agree to enable metrics collection unless we send one metrics event to indicate that metrics are being turned off. This is going to be a pretty imperfect comparison, but it will have to suffice because I figured an "I don't want to enable metrics" metric would not be well-received.
