VS Code – What's the deal with the telemetry?
Telemetry is godsend for developers, since it lets them track down actual product usage and issues.<p>Telemetry is a privacy nightmare for users, since it sends data to the developers outside of an average user's control - data which is probably easily associated with an individual and kept for eons (disk space is cheap after all).<p>I think telemetry collection is starting to become a professional ethics issue for developers, and should be talked about more.
