As others have noted in the thread, this is quite illegal in the EU (telemetry should be opt-in, not opt-out). I'd like to see how they tackle that one.
Is basically anyone actually doing this? Legitimate question.
It doesn't make it okay, but as far as I can tell almost no one is actually following GDPR, despite the large theoretical penalties. They've all decided to just put up cookie notices (with dark patterns to elicit agreement), because it's easy and doesn't force fundamental changes to business practices.
