I hope users of OSS can get over this sentiment. With decent and anonymized telemetry data maintainers can make better decisions that benefit the majority of users. Without it, it is the loudest users who get the most attention.

There are major OSS projects with no telemetry that are hamstrung by their lack of insight about which platforms and systems their software is running on.

Everyone should have the right to turn it off, but I think this is going to become the norm.
