Dear Doctor Professor Mr. Lunduke, Esq.,

I am a DevOps Engineer professionally and an Android ROM developer. I know a ton of telemetry can be detrimental to your freedom, and I hate it myself, but it is a major metric in my job. I've wanted to add telemetry to our open source Android ROM to give me a better idea of what/how features are used. I plan on it being anonymous, only incrementing values on the server.
Do you think open source telemetry is evil?
P.S. I use Arch

Big shout-out to @lunduke for answering this and giving it a community boost for seeing feedback on the idea and giving me more details to consider. youtu.be/fpBakoNt7z4

I was so excited to see it answered!

P.s. Not from Cleveland, but Oklahoma City 😄

@USARedDragon @lunduke The problem is that doing something like this can open up a can worms and sometimes there is no coming back from that.
