At issue here is your front page, which says:

"Private & Secure: All cloud features are opt-in. Data is encrypted at rest."

While you might have some wiggle room to say that telemetry is not a "cloud feature", logging in with github is absolutely a cloud thing and it's not really opt-in if you can't use the software without literally identifying yourself to a cloud service.

You should at the very least remove that text from your front page until you're out of beta and it's actually true.

And that's ignoring the fact that there's no victory in splitting hairs over the definition of cloud stuff to pretend you're not walking a very fine line.
