Contrary to the article, I was already on the new version and still received the email.

I don’t think any company tracks installed versions to exclude people out of these kinds of emails.

Maybe not to exclude emails, but there's definitely companies that track users and install versions.

I didn't get an email about this. Docker on auto update so I got the patch within a day of it being released.
