Description
Disabling telemetry by default. Why: Some users and corporations may not want to have an opt-out model but would rather have an opt-in to avoid accidentally sending potentially company sensitive data by accident upon install. Full disclosure I don't believe anything this plugin sends is sensitive but companies are very concerned about data egress. I personally think we should enable it for academic and personal usage but enterprise adoption - this may be frowned on or likely would be blocked anyway by firewalls.

Alternatively if you want to skip the build like I did locally:
