It's like "how did we ever build functional products without the ability to spy on you all the time??" I don't disagree that telemetry is ubiquitous in modern software and pretty much built into modern software dev lifecycles, but it's not like we didn't build lots of capable software before this was the case. Heck, 1Password itself seemed to be doing fine without any telemetry in the past.
The point people are making is that the one place you probably don't want telemetry software is your system critical password manager. There is a lot of potential for an "oopsie" where something accidentally gets sent that shouldn't get sent, and that's what people have an issue with.
- semiquaver 3y agoLots of people on this very forum have bitterly complained about a supposed major drop in product quality for 1Password since their relatively recent adoption of a cross-platform electron app.
