Tracking/Telemetry should always be opt-in. Or at least like:

Do you want to send following data: <Data that will be collected,...> <legalese>:

Big font: NO Small font: Yes

This would be the fairest design for all. Users would be able to make informed consent, vendors get data on a moral good way.
