I wonder how they figure the 0.6% if those systems aren't sending telemetry via the internet. Is there an organization that does a hardware census or something?

It’s my understanding that many of those surveys do so from tracking user agent strings from browsers. Whole they can be modified, most people have no idea how to do so.
