There's a difference between running `ps -ceo comm=tasks` and sending that information to Facebook's servers (which is how I read "collecting this information from millions of unknowing users"). It looks like he proved the former, but has provided no evidence as to the latter.

This doesn't mean that they're not sending that information back. I just don't like speculation being presented as fact without evidence. There are enough people on the Internet these days who will trust that `ps -ceo comm=tasks` means whatever a technical blog author tells them it means that I think it's dangerous to overstate what the evidence indicates.
