Remember, for avoidance of doubt, we will NEVER enable telemetry upload without the user's consent, which is indicated by either (a) not flipping the telemetry switch in gnome-initial-setup to the off position, or (b) flipping the telemetry switch in gnome-control-center to the on position. (The telemetry might be enabled *locally only* for users who upgrade from previous versions of Fedora Workstation and who therefore have not seen the consent switch, but the data will never be uploaded to Fedora. And upgraded users will see the switch default to off rather than on, so it really will be opt-in for upgraded users.)

Note that collecting the data by default increases the harm if someone accidentally enables telemetry and then notices the issue after data is reported.

Is there going to be some time limit on the data that is stored and not uploaded yet?
