But the two things are certainly different. one thing is have a peer-to-peer exchange of info (so that I know whom I am talking to and vice versa) and making it very clear in the top window, another thing is to send reports only to the content provider whitout telling you. In any case I am not telling that anyone should feel bad about this, just warned people.
