TELEMETRY OF MY OWN:
- THIS TELEMETRY CAN BE DISABLED DURING INSTALL.
- I collect windows versions so I can see who is running obsolete versions, like 21H1, so I can warn them they aren't getting critical security updates from microsoft anymore.
- I collect CPU make/model so I can warn people before upcoming windows versions stop supporting them.
- I collect S.M.A.R.T. stats so I can see how quickly drives are getting new bad sectors.
- I collect printer make/model so I can give people free ink/toner/etc when other people are disposing of compatable parts.
- I collect ComputerName and IP so I can tell who's computer is sending me alerts.
- I collect J10 version so I can tell if J10's auto updater ever fails.
