I wish there was a standard way of disabling telemetry across software dependencies.

While I leave it turned on for personal projects, several projects at work require disabling it.

I have spent hours auditing through transitive dependencies to turn it off. It should not be this painful.

No reason they couldn't all aim to respect a `TELEMETRY=false` env var, akin to the web's 'do not track' request.

Does anyone really respect DNT though?

A firewall is probably your best bet. Don't allow network traffic originating from anything other than a short whitelist.
