I am not talking about the Launchpad username.

I am talking about the computers username of my Linux account. The name of my home directory.

So it is the former.
My Totem Media Player crashed, and Apport came up, and it asked me if I wanted to send a report, and it showed me what it would send.
And in what it would send, it said my Linux account username,

I think it could be solved by not sending personally identifiable data such as usernames, or replacing my username with 'ubuntu' or something.

s/$USER/ubuntu/g
s/$HOSTNAME/mycomputer/g
