If you don't like it, don't turn it on? I am newbie in this world (from a desktop perspective), I guess I consumed more GNU philosophy in latest months.:) May be I have unreasonable expectations, but you are right, the telemetry is opt in. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gh_p91XrdeQ

But don't worry. KDE as as free as it gets.
