Exactly that. The feedback loop is shit as well. Out falls a broken pile of shit for a CTP. No one accepts any feedback. It hits RTM, no one accepts any feedback. Two years down the line, the same bugs are open. You should hear the partner reps wanting to cry when you report a bug in something that you NEED a fix for and are paying support for. You get fuck all other than a registry fix or a hack even if the mainline product is falling to bits across a thousand or so users (which is what happened to us). Money where the mouth is as well. Typical shit: https://github.com/Microsoft/SCVMMLinuxGuestAgent/issues/2 https://github.com/Microsoft/SCVMMLinuxGuestAgent/issues/2 -> ignored. Regularly hoses our new VMs deploying windows on SCVMM. https://github.com/dotnet/cli/issues/3093 https://github.com/dotnet/cli/issues/3093 -> fuck you go away we're just going to take your data unless you set a magic variable even though no one wants to give it away as indicated by the ticket and there are bugs in the configuration and it causes people massive audit problems.

From the second ticket > It's only a matter of time before some enterprising journalist looking for a scoop picks up on this. The headlines here are not good: "Microsoft caught with sneaky program to spy on companies" Let me take care of that... Edit: Wrote several of germanys biggest tech sites with focus on dataprotection aswell as the german ministry for cyber security with a link to that ticket. Let's see what happens

  Excellent, hopefully something positive comes from it. :) On a similar note if they get back to you, Mozilla is testing the waters with dumb privacy invasion stuff in Germany soon too: https://www.ghacks.net/2017/10/06/mozilla-to-launch-firefox-cliqz-experiment-with-data-collecting/ https://www.ghacks.net/2017/10/06/mozilla-to-launch-firefox-... They're probably across that already though, but if not it might be useful to point out to them. :)

  You do undrrstand thus is a one year old issue in a pre-release of .net core 1 (current version is 2.0)? The issue is well documented and explained: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/tools/telemetry https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/tools/telemetry I applaud your vigilance, but you are a bit late.
