No kidding. What about US customers that want "to manage all telemetry and updates"?

From the article ... "The Windows 10 China Government Edition is based on Windows 10 Enterprise Edition".

AFAIK the option to control telemetry was always there for Enterprise Edition.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/configuration/confi...

"IT pros can use various methods, including Group Policy and Mobile Device Management (MDM), to choose a telemetry level. If you’re using Windows 10 Enterprise, Windows 10 Education, or Windows Server 2016, the Security telemetry level is available when managing the policy. Setting the telemetry level through policy overrides users’ choices."

From what I've read, it doesn't work.
