The article notes that it's actually an "opt in" but cautions that
users might mistakenly do so.
Additional potentially useful reading:
https://github.com/audacity/audacity/pull/835 (actually cited in that

Also interesting read IMHO:

I think from a Linux (Audio) perspective, this is also an interesting
comment, incidentally in that same issue about telemetry:
