I agree. Two points:

1) The telemetry here can be disabled, which is an upside, but it's default-on.

2) I'm not sure this will be an option forever. Tools like co-pilot MUST phone home, and WILL be increasingly critical to being competitive. Free market forces will likely eventually force universal telemetry (even if not phrased as such).

With ML, we're heading back to the mainframe era, where a central computer center has petaflops of computing power and terabytes of models loaded into memory. I'm not quite sure the answer there, if any.
