For a start, user could be notified that he can install that system, instead of getting a laptop with such software preinstalled. I don't really see a reason to have this installed when users are not aware of it. How many people go to the producer after their laptop is stolen and ask "Have you by any chance installed some laptop tracking software on my laptop by default? I cannot identify my laptop anymore in any meaningful way - it's one of toshiba ones." ?

If the user isn't aware of it, it's useless. If the user didn't agree to the way it's done, it's pretty much an illegal spying device.
