The privacy concerns here are not just a matter of preference, but
something which could open legal liability. Imagine a person who queries
what they think is their local system and instead by accident discloses
trade secrets, health information, etc. The disclosure of trade secrets
would not just be a mere inconvenience, or something that leaves you
feeling icky, but something that could cause serious financial damage.

Further, do not forget legislation like PIPEDA
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_Information_Protection_and_Electronic_Documents_Act
in Canada and other substantially similar legislation from around the
world.
