> Remove Google analytics from CyanogenMod by flashing freecygn.

> Stop CyanogenMod from reporting tethering usage to your provider

I get why they are using Analytics, but why is a ROM like CyanogenMod reporting tethering usage to the carriers?

> Change DNS settings so that CyanogenMod stops using Google's DNS servers

This is probably something "nice" they thought to do for their users, but I'd rather not have that enabled by default in CM. If they're still trying to be a "privacy ROM" and whatnot, they should be using an OpenNIC DNS or set up their own encrypted DNSChain (https://github.com/okTurtles/dnschain).
