I see your point but my approach in general is to enable all these things by default, because otherwise many users will not know it's even there, same for example for auto-updates (which privacy conscious users often don't want).

And I assume that users who care about this will find out how to disable it. I realise it's not ideal - perhaps a better way is to ask the first time the app starts, like what VLC is doing (however this has the drawback of an extra popup on startup).
