 Getting this popup surprised me a lot, and TBB users will get it by
 default since the addon upgrades by itself. I don't think too many people
 know what an EFF is outside the US, not even my computer-savvy friends
 over here do, and the popup is scary. We should probably pre-configure TBB
 to not have that popup show up and not transmit certificates to EFF.

 What do you think about that?
