No, only paid users (since it's paid users who get this feature) who have explicitly linked their journal to a Google Analytics account (which they have to set up separately) will have this on.
To be honest, I think that clearly identifying who at the current time has GA on is deceptive. Somebody could set up or lose Google Analytics at any point in time. There's no good way to warn people of who has GA enabled *before* they go to their journal, either. The best way would be to put a notification on the profile, but I think the profile itself gets to have Google Analytics on it (could be wrong) and so that kind of defeats the whole purpose. But, we do know at the very least that only paid users can, and they won't be a majority of users.
Google Analytics is easy for an individual to block--that is, somebody who doesn't want to be counted in someone else's stats can easily install AdBlockPlus and block Google Analytics.
