Meta has showed time and again, that they're not serious about anything including and not limited to customer privacy, security, and support.

If you still use Meta products in 2026, you kinda deserve it.

I'd be interested in, 1. a SOME-TRUST model: a list of opt-outs for the known software that collect telemetry; so that I can just paste that into an env file and be done with it. 2. a ZERO-TRUST model [preferable]: where I control if an application can send any telemetry data; instead of depending on a flag that the distributor may or may not respect.

Curious because for a long time we as an industry maintained that reliability and brand value are business critical; but seems like they are cared very little now a days.

Happy to be corrected about my perception too.
