    There definitely is a reason to collect telemetry with user consent. Not everyone will go out of their way to report on issues, or there may be features that are underdeveloped that users may use more often than they expect and they want to move resources from focusing on one aspect of the OS to another. As long as it’s done with consent and is an opt-in system it’s fine. I get that this not the case for this Intel one, but I’m speaking generally for development as a whole.

      Well, as long as we can agree that the case in the OP is not a good example of telemetry being used…
