This looks really good but there is one thing I find irritating: This software, an IDE, comes with a privacy statement [0]:<p>Some excerpts:<p>--<p>&gt; We collect information about how you interact with our products and services. This includes information about how you use the products and services, such as the features you use, the web pages you visit, and the search terms you enter. It includes information about the device you use with the services, including IP address, device identifiers, regional and language settings, and information about the network, operating system, browser or other software you use to connect to the services. And it also includes information about the performance of the product or service and any errors or problems you experience with them. In order to create a richer picture of your product usage, we will correlate usage data across other Microsoft services, like Visual Studio Team Services.<p>&gt; We may share or disclose personal data with Microsoft-controlled subsidiaries and affiliates. We also share data with vendors or agents working on our behalf. For example, companies we&#x27;ve hired to provide customer service support or assist in protecting and securing our systems and services may need access to personal data in order to provide those functions.<p>&gt; Finally, we will access, disclose and preserve personal data, including your private content when we have a good faith belief that doing so is necessary to:<p>comply with applicable law or respond to valid legal process from competent authorities, including from law enforcement or other government agencies;<p>--<p>From a cultural point of view you wouldn&#x27;t necessarily expect that from a piece of software that says &quot;Free&quot; and &quot;Open Source&quot; on its landing page.
