All telemetry collection MUST be an opt-in feature (disabled by

As explained in the proposal document, we know that opt-in metrics are not very useful because few users would opt in, and these users would not be representative of Fedora users as a whole. We are not interested in opt-in metrics.

Please add the ability to completely get rid of it by removing the
telemetry collector package.

It should be possible to uninstall eos-event-recorder-daemon and eos-metrics-instrumentation. I'm not sure if eos-metrics will be uninstallable, but that package basically just provides D-Bus API and doesn't do anything on its own. (eos-event-recorder-daemon is the component that actually uploads metrics.)
