How about choosing no default, and instead ask the user on first run? `Do you want to send usage data to the developer? (yes/no)`

- CJefferson 10y agoI imagine it would get REALLY annoying if every command line program started doing that, every time you logged into a new machine. Of course, that suggests we should introduce some kind of standard, then bash (or whatever shell you use) could prompt you once, and every other program could use that setting.
- jeena 10y agoAt least this would make the problem with how many commandline tools are tracking you visible, and perhaps would start a discussion on the necessity of tracking for tools like brew, ls, cp, dd and so on.
