[Bug 423856] Re: [FFE] ec2-init should check for image upgrades

Right, agreed.

What I find particularly interesting in this case is the concern that
Canonical might be having some benefit in accessing *anonymous* data
about upgrade inquires in a public API.  This really puzzles me, because
EC2 is a proprietary system from Amazon, and Amazon is able to tell
*exactly* how much disk space, disk io, network, CPU usage, which
images, which kernels, etc etc, you are using.  Please read that again:
how much *you* are using.  It surprises me that such a concern is being
raised in this context.
