There is no clear line to be drawn between the two, and it really depends on the use to which the data is put, something that's opaque to end users.

Sure, error reporting feeding in to a QA database is one thing. But is there the capability to target Win10 OS ads to, say, folks with old video cards? I'd be very surprised if someone in Redmond didn't think of that.

That being said, I do believe that currently SQM is separate from ad tracking and crash reporting for example.
