Hmm, something is wrong with their wording then.

This seems to say that they won't do auto-update checks by default. But I guess they are doing auto-update checks but not tracking the checks, just a "ping" (whatever that means if it isn't an update check).
- freediver 4y agoWe are not doing auto-update checks by default (as that would be a form of telemetry). The pings we count will originate only from users that manually enabled them.
