the Go maintainers are now claiming that objectors to Google's opt-out telemetry proposal on the Go compiler - yes, really - are arguing in bad faith and violating the Code of Conduct, and their comments are getting hidden.

well done lads, you just keep doing that as hard as possible. i'm sure it'll work out great.

@davidgerard how did the software industry survive before telemetry? The way these companies make it sound, they'd be out on the street with their hats in their hands if they couldn't phone home.

@seanmcbeth @davidgerard Software was worse because it mostly relied on guesswork and self-reporting.

Certainly doable without it, but so is driving a car with manual transmission.
