Audacity opts to add telemetry capture

Move comes days after firm acquired by Muse Group

The article notes that it's actually an "opt in" but cautions that
users might mistakenly do so.

Additional potentially useful reading:

https://github.com/audacity/audacity/pull/835 (actually cited in that very article on the Register)

Also interesting read IMHO:

Data Collection vs Telemetry in Audacity - https://github.com/SndChaser/AudacityTelemetryComments/blob/main/DataCollectionVsTelemetry.md

I think from a Linux (Audio) perspective, this is also an interesting comment, incidentally in that same issue about telemetry: https://github.com/audacity/audacity/pull/835#issuecomment-836109757
