Its a voluntary reporting ... I know with both PC-BSD, reporting is on by 
default .. with FreeBSD, its a simple 'make install' in ports ... with 
NetBSD/OpenBSD, I suspect its purely manual, so a bit more work involved ...

Both NetBSD / OpenBSD #s have been increasing though, just not as fast as the 
others ...
