Opt-out a no-go for Google Go, goes with opt-in telemetry
The stewards of Google's open source Go programming language have reversed course and committed to implementing software telemetry on an opt-in basis rather than turning data collection on by default and requiring developers to opt-out.
The opt-out proposal was put forth in early February by Russ Cox, the Golang tech lead at Google, as a way to understand how Go code is being used and to prioritize development and maintenance decisions related to the language. The idea was that as programs in the Go toolchain were run, they'd record various events like cache hits, feature usage, latency, and so on to a local file. The file would consist of counter values and function names, but crucially not user data or identifiers.
Meanwhile, the Go team would operate a collection server that had a 10 percent chance per week of capturing this data without any identifier – login, machine ID, location data, or IP address. That said, IP addresses would be visible to the system for TCP connections but would not be part of the telemetry report., consisted of answers to questions like what portion of Go command invocations use particular settings, operating systems, or modules.
