    > I think the challenge I have is that since you’re getting IP address that will be an opportunity to abuse.

    Yes! And we are migrating to the new package / infrastructure because of this - https://github.com/iterative/telemetry-python (DVC's sister tool MLEM is already on it and it's not sending (saving) IP addresses, nor using GA or any other third-party tools, data is saved into BigQuery and eventually we'll make publicly accessible - https://mlem.ai/doc/user-guide/analytics to be fully GDPR compatible). It's a legacy system that DVC had in place. There was no intention to use those IP addresses in some way.

    > I think perhaps the only other way would be to support an automated distro that doesn’t include it so users are at least able to easily choose a version.

    Thanks. To some extent brew-like policy (not sending anything significant before there is a chance to disable it and there is clear explicit message) should be mitigating this, but I'll check if it works this way now and if it can be improved.
