Information about which posts you're reading and flagging is always sent to NewsGator. The attention data preference only covers things such as which items were e-mailed, posted to a blog, etc. After reading NetNewsWire's help, I see that my original post was incorrect.

Or at least you can only switch it off when using NewsGator as syncing hub. The data is obviously only sent when you sync via Newsgator.
