I believe that absolute vast majority of telemetry is simply ignored. And I also believe it is very common that there are several individuals in most companies that couldn't care less about what is included in the telemetry.
A lot has changed since the late 90s, it really isn't good argument for telemetry nor forced updates that things were bad then. Things would have been absolutely awful in the late 90s even if you had perfect telemetry and instant updates that somehow didn't even need internet.
I don't see any real arguments for either in your posts.
