You know what’s funny? Most of the time, when something asks me to opt in for telemetry, I strongly consider doing so, then look into what’s collected and end up deciding I’m okay with it.
But when I have to opt out, or the default is selected to opt in, I just lose trust entirely.
And I’ll jump through hoops to block anything I can’t replace that doesn’t even ask.
Like, I totally understand why some telemetry is necessary for continued development. I’m down with that. But the shadier it is, the less willing I am to allow it.
