Problem/Motivation
The settings screen contains a checkbox labeled "Show a link to the privacy policy". This doesn't seem to do anything. When looking through the code, the HTML snippet it adds contains a link to the URL https://akismet.com/web-service-privacy-policy, which doesn't actually exist. It would seem this is actually a quick and dirty find-replace from the similar functionality in the Mollom module. AFAICT, Akismet does not actually have such a requirement.
Proposed resolution
Remove the setting and its associated functionality. Also remove any other reference to the privacy link; e.g. the readme references it as well.
Remaining tasks
- Create merge request
- Consolidate README (see comment #6).
- Review
- Commit
User interface changes
The configuration option "Show a link to the privacy policy" disappears.
API changes
None.
Data model changes
None.

eelkeblokTrying to fixed conflicts made me realise we lost some content from the README through the latest few issues updating it. I committed the version from this branch in addition of the new README.md, but they need to be consolidated before this can ge merged.
