Who knows!? This marks quite a change in attitude where the end user is suddenly responsible for staying on top of newly silently introduced opt-out settings. I&#x27;m pretty disappointed and feel the amount of trust I&#x27;ve had in the maintainers have dropped considerably. Sneakily sending random HTTP requests to third party analytics services and stuffing my dotfiles with unique identifiers for tracking purposes is not what I expected from a friendly open source project.<p>This could have been handled much better with some sort of opt-in prompt like the debian installer does for its popcon usage tracker.
