I'm a developer and I always leave telemetry on .. when it's my code I find it useful when there's a problem so it gets fixed faster. As long as it's not being used to target ads at me I'm happy to help, esp when it's free software?

    It's Microsoft. They will gather every bit of your data they can and use it for whatever makes the most money. Which is usually personalized ads.
