Search Server 2008 error logs sent to MS without prompting

Don't know how i missed this one before.

After you install the latest Search Server 2008 RC 64bit (didn't check the 32 bit), go to Central Administration->Operations->Logging

By default Collect Error Reports is enabled and so is the checkbox to silently send error reports to Microsoft.

NOTE: it doesn't just say SharePoint error reports and could possibly mean all error reports on the computer.

Here is the text: 

Change this computer's error collection policy to silently send all reports. This changes the computer's error reporting behavior to automatically send reports to Microsoft without prompting users when they log on.

I personally have no problem helping out the development and QA process of Microsoft. I am just not sure all my clients want this on by default.
