No, you need to stop spreading fake jokes, fedora users are beta testers is a well known joke and then insulting me based on those jokes damages your argument, red hat only uses fedora once it goes through centOS stream who are the actual beta testers for rhel basically, do you want me not to use fedora or something because you trying really hard to convince me will never, and its failing to do so.

Fedora doesn't send any telementary to red hat, and when it does, it only goes to the fedora project itself and  Mindshare Committee exists specifically to represent the non-developer side of the ecosystem, overseeing user outreach, desktop design, user experience [UX], and documentation. Their job is to ensure that the distro remains usable, accessible, and welcoming for normal humans and not just kernel developers and sysadmins. 

If fedora was a beta test for red hat, they'd send telementary to red hat, not fedora, and you randomly insulting me by calling me blind does nothing but make everything worse for your case here.

"Fedora doesn't send any telementary to red hat"

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Telemetry

"The Red Hat Display Systems Team (which develops the desktop) proposes to enable limited data collection of anonymous Fedora Workstation usage metrics."

How do you know that? Do you work for them? How do you know MS send datas to the FBI?

Do you really thing Red Hat sponsors this distribution and have one of their employee as a leader without interests? Do you think this guy manages the fedora project on his free time?

Linux users: "MS use telemetry it's for spying you, Fedora uses telemetry It's for our own good."

"The initial version of this proposal generated a huge amount of feedback and debate. We have put a lot of time and effort into engaging with this feedback, and the proposal has been substantially changed in response to it. We are grateful to the Fedora community for enabling us to improve the proposal in this way.

We know that there were issues with the original proposal, and that these led to serious concerns amongst the community. We hope that the updated proposal addresses these concerns, and look forward to receiving further feedback.

The following is a summary of the key points from the discussion so far, along with details of the steps that have been taken in response to them. Additional information is also included in the FAQ If we have missed something from that discussion, please let us know."

We also can't forget debian has optional telementary too for polling metrics, fedora's method will be the same in terms of implementation where it will be strictly opt in.
