>> While I'd personally love to see opt-in rather than opt-out telemetry

I think the vast majority of Linux users would not opt-in to any sort of telemetry. Some would consciously make a determination, but MS/Windows has trained the bulk of us to just say no to such things during any sort of install procedure. I personally would like telemetry to be done fully openly, with a running local text file showing in user-readable format exactly what has been shared in plain English.
