Telemetry in the Go Toolchain

Any program is opt-in, so you just don't have to use it. Mayor bummer. Assuming data collection is properly disclosed, ofc, but i don't see anyone here arguing against that.

The "there shouldn't be any" argument just seems so entitled with there being such demand / reasons to do so. I applaud everyone trying to find ways to satisfy both sides, as done by the original article.

You can't satisfy both sides by completely ignoring one side.

"What I do on my machine is none of your business, unless I decide it's your business" is a strong argument, presented multiple times in multiple places, and I haven't seen any rebuttal by any Go representative.

You can ignore the community and do whatever is good for business, but it's hypocritical to pretend you're a "community-driven" project if you do that.
