Ah, right. I don't see an automated system seeing things about me as an intrusion until it has implications about me. For instance, I imagine if someone dev-nulled all telemetry but still had it running you'd consider it a privacy risk because your private data was exfiltrated but I wouldn't because no action was taken against me on private information.
- JohnFen 7y ago> I imagine if someone dev-nulled all telemetry but still had it running you'd consider it a privacy risk because your private data was exfiltrated Yes, this is my perspective. There are two aspects to privacy. The first is data collection. When data is collected about me or my use of my machines, that is a privacy intrusion regardless of what is done with that data post-collection. The second is what is done with the data post-collection. In my view, the impact of this is secondary -- how the data is handled post-collection will inform whether or not I'm willing to give consent for its collection in the first place.
