> Ask Users First I think that is wrong, it increases awareness of something that I would not care otherwise, and should not by default There should be more trust. Telemetry should be auditable, and companies should be more transparent with how they're using it and storing for how long Users should be able to see everything being sent Allow to reduce telemetry levels, all, erros, settings... Allow users to reset user identifiers, reset at every installation, reset periodically Use a trustable third party telemetry service

> There should be more trust. This is, really, the heart of the problem. There is very little trust. And the software industry, as a whole, is the reason. The amount of abuse we as an industry have engaged in, and continue to engage in, is remarkable. Repairing that trust is something that will take years of good behavior. We as an industry haven't even begun the first steps down that path, though. > Use a trustable third party telemetry service Does one exist? And if so, how would you or I -- let alone an ordinary user -- know it was trustable?

"There should be more trust." Nope. Trust is always earned, never given. Why? People, Corporations, NGO, Governments are all broken in some way and are basically as evil as you allow them to treat you.
