I think that this needs clarification to avoid noise in the conversation: it’s not Julia Computing who will get the data, but “a limited subset of core Julia developers” (there may be coincidences in the people, but legally this is different).

JC may enable other telemetry options in their products (Julia Pro, etc.), which have their own terms of service.
