Title:
  anonymize ESSIDs and AP MAC addresses

Status in “apport” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “apport” source package in Oneiric:
  Fix Released
Status in “linux” source package in Oneiric:

Bug description:
  ESSIDs of the network interface are shown

  they are furthermore submitted without showing the user what is being
  submitted, even if you click on "details"

  furthermore, logs including paths such as /home or running processes
  or other sensitive information should be grepped for such text and
  removed

  SRU TEST CASE: Run "apport-bug network-manager", and in the details
  expander, open the "IwConfig" field. It shows the "ESSID" in the final
  oneiric version, with the update you should see "ESSID: <hidden>".
