It's a moot point, because no one (that I see) claimed or is claiming
to be entitled to that. In fact, Alec said

He's not saying that no official opinion would be needed if they were
doing an opt-out. He's saying that they don't need an official opinion
*since* they aren't doing some sort of opt-out system.

Not your fault, but this whole thread regarding the
merits/legality/privacy of opt-out is completely irrelevant to the
original topic.
