FWIW: I once more experienced abrt to send report without user consent.

This is completely inacceptable, these days - I therefore decided to 
pull the plug and uninstalled it on all of my systems. I recommend 
everybody doing the same, who is concerned about data privacy.

(No, I don't have a reproducer. These incidents happened several times 
at occasions since I have installed f22).

Well, you should start think about the causes - IMO, these are very 
obvious: Abrt's GUI non-suiteable for ordinary users.
