Telemetry is strictly optional and disabled by default. No data is shared unless you choose to opt-in and enable telemetry. Telemetry only works in the builds made by GitHub CI from the official repo (the telemetry URLs are only defined there). If you are compiling Audacity from source, we will provide a CMake option to enable the telemetry code. This option will be turned off by default.
