Wow: "For applications on Google Play that integrate this tool, usage is tracked" without even an option to disable that. Sure, it's open source so can be changed by editing the source code, but does anyone else find that kinda creepy?
e.g. if I make an app using 10 FOSS libraries, then I wouldn't want my app reporting to 10 different places everything which the user is doing.
Also, on the actual homepage for it (http://google.github.io/flatbuffers), the only mention of this call-home feature is buried at the bottom of the "building" page.
[EDIT] This is incorrect; see below comments about this tracking not being a call-home feature but instead just Google scanning apps submitted to the Play Store
