Add enableUserTracking boolean to app.js to easily turn tracking on and
off.

Related to #226

I started adding a settings page (#660). Perhaps this could be added there as well.

If we want to let the user choose if he wants to be tracked or not then it's fine, but otherwise it might not be needed.

In any case you should use a checkbox with the label "Help us improve the application" or something like that since the tracking is mainly used to track user actions.

I believe it is a good practise to let the user knows his action are tracked by default and giving people the option to opt-out is quite important in my opinion. Especially in the case of Popcorntime where not everyone might like the fact they are sending usage data about illegal copyright infringment...

Yes I agree completely.
