When running the MATLAB installer, one of the fields users can edit is a checkbox labeled 'send user experience to MathWorks'. If unchecked, the resulting installation will not attempt to send information to our servers.
When performing a Silent Installation, this option is disabled by default.
If you wish to set MATLAB to not send user information after the initial installation, you can do so by editing one of MATLAB's preferences. Open the preferences menu, and select Matlab -> General. In the resulting window, you will see a checkbox labeled 'Help us improve by sending user information to MathWorks'. You can uncheck this to stop MATLAB from sending user information.
