I prefer to view it from the other side: Why should anyone collect any telemetry from anything that I use without me explicitly opting in?

When I run into a problem, I will opt in as necessary (usually through the process of providing a stack trace / core dump / diagnostics data as requested). Outside of that, my usage habits are my business and my business alone.

Nobody needs to know how, when, or why I'm using anything without my explicit permission.

Vim/Emacs don't collect telemetry on what I'm doing, both are still great (both included to avoid the holy war).

EDIT: Or rather, why should I have to justify my desire for privacy? Why do I have to setup a series of DMZs, proxies, firewalls, or total disconnection, in order to retain that?
