This worked. Funny that this bug will cause people to turn off the opt-out data collection. No one is going to turn it back on after the issue is fixed.
They will turn it back on for you. I could swear I've had it turned off a few times already before, and I'm definitely sure I did it at least once yet here we are :).
Telemetry in itself isn't the end of the world, but disregarding the settings your users chose is such a weird behavior coming from an organization that pretends to care about choice.
