DEPRECATED: Control It! has the same functionality, along with more settings. This mod is no longer maintained.

This mod probably also reduces lag.

FYI all of the telemetry data is likely sold to third parties as well.

@nhatanh0475: Telemetry IS harmful. It is collection of your private data that they like to hide inside the TOS so when you sue for theft of private data or whatever they can point to the TOS says you agreed to send them everything including the time you go to bathroom (/s)

Telemetry is a massive privacy concern and anyone who is concerned with the telemetry is actually a very smart person.

Just because they forced everyone into telemetry so they can play the game doesn't mean we have to accept it. We as consumers need to push back and encourage them to use OPT IN telemetry.

Had CO put the telemetry as optional instead of forcing it on everyone by means of TOS I am sure this kerfuffle with Chaos would not even exist.

I messed up. I installed the old one, and saved my game. Then realized it was succeeded by mods already installed so I unsubbed and removed. Then my save stopped loading but content manager shows that mod missing.

Question: Can I unsub it, sub to this, and my save game will still load? Or I specifically have to install the obsoleted one to be able to play my save? Thanks for updating this mod :)

Failed to send telemetry event: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object

Does this do the same as Control It?

Cheers for giving us the option to disable telemetry!
At least for those who doesn't know how to use HOSTS lists

Why isn't this on GitHub?

If you mean anything you will notice, then no....

Will this game make my game run faster? And if so how?

@Butt Mash: Read the description...

What does this do?

@REVO Had the same issue and found that it was a mod conflict with Ability to read 🤣❤

Funny how Chaos and Holy Water said these Telemetry is harmful and they have keylogger. Well the more they said, the more red flag over their head.

I usually block it all through my Untangle Unified Threat Management firewall OS and Pi-Hole, but I will still use this just in case something does get past both of those devices.

@Duke Skyloafer: this would only disable the game's own telemetry, not that of the Steam client, nor the communication between the game and the Steam client.

@Duke Skyloafer I believe they go through a separate channel, as they're sent to steam, not paradox, so this mod shouldn't interfere with them. However, the game auto-disables achievements as soon as any mod is detected, so you'll still need a mod like e.g. Keallu's Achieve It!

Do not use Harmony (redesigned)

Legit question here: Will using this effectively disable achievements?

Is this mod compatible with Harmony (redesigned)?

But... but... someone said telemetry was all keyloggers (and I'm sure he's on Facebook too)! 😃

Thank you, The community and every workshop user doesn't want to generate any chaos when saying that this sh1t is an amazing addition in the workshop!! Thank you from all of us!

I tried to enable it but it's saying "you dont have enough mental degradation to run this mod", what should i do

Is this compatible with some chaos theory?
