initial v1 2 2 > If you wish to filter the data for privacy purposes, then you can do so and it will not affect the update process for small WordPress installations. At present, there is not a secondary update path for large installations, but that does not preclude the possibility of one occurring in the future. 3 3 4 Let me just add here that the proposed filter here does not seem to be entirely sufficient, as the `pre_http_request` filterhas to fire off a request off its own, meaning a request can only be pre-fired (or pre-emptied) once. So if two plugins are short-circuiting the request like this, a request is effectively fired twice and the entire point is defeated.4 Let me just add here that the `pre_http_request` filter here does not seem to be entirely sufficient, as any code hooking into it has to fire off a request off its own, meaning a request can only be pre-fired (or pre-emptied) once.
