The agreement mentions that (unless you disable it) Apple will collect various technical data about your system. Makes sense. I'm curious, however, why that data includes, if Location Services is enabled, "the real-time geographic location of your computer and location search queries."

I'm not sure if there's a way to just exclude location information from the diagnostic info, without disabling location services for all apps? I'm happy to share information about my system configuration with them, but I'm not sure what's so helpful about my location data.



For diagnosing any bugs with Location Services, I'd presume.

It's a beta build after all...
