Am I the only one who thinks this is kind of petty? It's not like Audacity is trying to read your email (or even rip off your tracks). The telemetry I'm reading about is literally:
1. error reporting - the user has to click a button to share crash logs. It's basically a macro to help the user create a support ticket.
2. version checking - no PII information being kept, literally just helping the developer get an idea of what versions they need to be supporting--you do want them to support the version you're running, right? Well, if not, you can turn it off.

What's the big deal?
