I appreciate that your folks released this OSS tool.

However:

Where I work, as long as the data collection code is in there, whether I can modify it or not, they won't allow it on our computers. I know this is not uncommon.

Dismissing this concern by saying "other software does this" while awless falls into a different category (small CLI tool) is also problematic.

Thanks for the feedback. Until we provide a way to allow/disable data collection, we have disabled completely the data sending (see https://github.com/wallix/awless/commit/f6389e75787390bd7797...).
