Apple gives you the option to turn telemetry on/off as part of the machine setup & OS upgrade process. This option is explained in simple english and not buried in the legalese.

The question is, is the telemetry really off completely on mac or either?

Is there any guarantee that Apple gets zero bytes of your data or do we just take their word for it because their products are shiny and cool?

Those questions apply to literally every computer.
