Personally, I don’t mind this sort of telemetry so long as they’re open about it - which looks to be the plan, at least for the moment.
IMO the FOSS/Linux space has an odd relationship with telemetry that I think should change. I’d like to point out the gnome-info-collect debacle:
GNOME users: "GNOME devs don’t understand what we want!"
GNOME devs: “Hey, we want to get some data on how people use GNOME. If you’d like to help, install and run this one-off tool. Source code is here, and we collect XYZ metrics (all anonymized, of course.)”
(Some) GNOME users: screeching incoherently about data harvesting and telemetry
