Disable Go language telemetry


It turns out, Go (specifically gopls aka the local language server) collects telemetry, the scoundrel. Gathering some kind of anonymous data on how we code. How to disable it:

  1. C:\Users<user>\AppData\Roaming\go\telemetry
  2. create a file there named mode (without an extension!)
  3. inside the file, write just one word: off

Although, in terms of Windows telemetry, I gave up a long time ago – got tired of cleaning it up. But if there is some sort of tele-perversion that can simply be turned off once and for all – it must be done. Just so PC won’t slow down in vein.
