This seems like a lot of brouhaha about nothing. They just recorded the fact that a user opted out of telemetry, they didn't stealthily send telemetry against user wishes. They removed this call in the meantime [0]. [0] https://github.com/netlify/cli/pull/740/files

There are lots of reasons to avoid Netlify. https://github.com/netlify/cli/issues/739

It silently uploads your usage data without consent, which includes your IP and thus coarse location data as well as any vendor relationships you use it within (eg hosting or CI). It even sent a “telemetry disabled” telemetry event when/after you explicitly indicated you didn’t want telemetry sent, until I repeatedly complained (they brushed it off initially): https://github.com/netlify/cli/issues/739 I just don’t believe that the company has any meaningful training or priorities around privacy. As for the types of content you can’t post, I encourage you to peruse their TOS: https://www.netlify.com/tos/ An excerpt of some of their prohibitions: > Content with the sole purpose of causing harm or inciting hate, or content that could be reasonably considered as slanderous or libelous. I personally would like to be able to post political cart

It silently and without even first-run notification transmits your usage data without consent, pretty much the textbook definition of spyware. Netlify considers your agreement to their TOS (at account creation time) to be your opt-in to them silently spying from within your tools. Until I complained, it even transmitted a telemetry event on the user’s explicit opt-out of telemetry. More info: https://github.com/netlify/cli/issues/739
