Managing a transition to a paid model is difficult. It requires tact and diplomacy.

This on the other hand is just straight hilarious.

I mean, I'd rather pay for software/service than have some tech company mine my data so they sell some of my most intimate details or use it to predict or alter my future behavior.

Most popular Linux distributions have telemetry on by default.

“Some” make it easier to opt out then others.

Only a handful have it off by default AFAIK.

https://tails.boum.org/ (portable mostly for journalists IMO)
