How to opt in or out

Use the redhat.telemetry.enabled setting in order to enable or disable telemetry collection. Note that this extension abides by Visual Studio Code's telemetry level: if telemetry.telemetryLevel is set to off, then no telemetry events will be sent to Red Hat, even if redhat.telemetry.enabled is set to true. If telemetry.telemetryLevel is set to error or crash, only events containing an error or errors property will be sent to Red Hat.
