 * If this review is to be believed:
    [http://www.shinephp.com/lockdown-wp-admin-plugin-review/](http://www.shinephp.com/lockdown-wp-admin-plugin-review/)
 * The plugin sends the blog admin’s personal info anonymously over to the plugin
   author. I thought that violates the wp guidelines? What do you guys think?

 * Several users were having issues with getting the hidden path setup. These were
   only temporarily put in so we could have an understanding of the issues that 
   user’s are having. They were just taken out in 1.7.
 * Nothing was violated. WordPress sends anyomous stats to the wordpress.org with
   your version information, plugin information, etc. These were never leaked, even
   though there was nothing vital that was collected. They just collected a permalink
   structure, WordPress version and the login base that was used. We **never** collected
   the admin’s personal information.
 * But again, these are removed now. Update to 1.7.
