Out of curiosity, in what context has IoT telemetry been meaningful to the consumer? In other words, what data has been gathered that can be sold or otherwise abused? I personally don't see a reason to be concerned about a manufacturer wanting to track which features are being used and how those features are being used.

Yea, totally OK except they have to ask me first.
Telemetry has huge implications and it can be literally anything. Photos captured by a webcam can be “telemetry”, manf can always say we were verifying our image sensor calibration.
