Can I please pay full price on just Windows without any “telemetry”?
I get your point but in software development some telemetry data ist very helpful and also nessesary to improve or fix your software. Microsoft though and almost all tech companies are collecting much much more than needed.
Telemetry isnt a substitute for actual bug reports, and if a company wants to know how their software is being used.. then they can always just ask? or just do some actual user testing?
You could by the Pro license then modify Group Policy to restrict telemetry down to the bare minimum.
