That said, I've also not been convinced of the privacy or security concerns beyond just making sure you don't run a buggy/insecure spell checker (much like you shouldn't run a buggy/insecure browser). As has been noted, the information such as user language and OS/Browser type is pretty trivial to determine through a range of other means.</div><div><br></div>Regards,<div><br></div><div>Adrian Sutton.<br><div>
