Domen, creator of devenv, recently added telemetry to his devenv thing, as part of adding AI to the product, and when nixpkgs contributors removed the telemetry, he reverted the change, with a self merge, without a fucking review even.
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/381981
This is a clear conflict of interest. We need to stop this from happening in the NixOS organization, corpos need to have some respect for users.

Revert "devenv: disable telemetry by default" by domenkozar · Pull Request #381981 · NixOS/nixpkgs
This reverts commit 1aca3c4. Since I'm the maintainer and author of this package, I was never asked if I agree with this change and I don't. It's going to make it really hard to improve...GitHub
