It's more "forced choice" than opt-in, same as recently-required browser choice 
screens in EU countries. IMHO opt-out is also good enough, but I'd be happy 
with this forced choice too. I don't think an out-of-the-way pure opt-in option 
would collect enough unbiased usage data. The conversion funnel narrows rapidly 
as friction increases.
