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.
