I've set a number of OPT-OUT (optout? OPTOUT?) options, since i'm not sure which method is the proper one - your documentation is saying different things at different locations, and the installer, the installer says otherwise, i'm not wisers. Am I suppose to set the OPT-OUT in the user 'scope'? If the OPT-OUT var is set in the 'Machine' scope - does pwsh.exe ignores it or is the Machine Scope super-seeding User scope? Docs don't mention anything at all.
Despite setting all the variants of the opt-out env variables by running snippet in pwsh 6.2.1 and 7.0.0.p1 (built-in Administrator account, Win10 Pro build 10.0.18922.1000 ) I still got repeated connection request to MS servers which I did not approved nor was I asked about it (for users who don't filter traffic they won't even know about it)
That being said, why is it trying to connect randomly for god-knows-what every few minutes? Behaviour happens on launch / exit of pwsh.exe session - 3 times during the write of this text. Privacy being the marketing word lately in MS, but no one seems to clarify what actually is being send to where and for what - just don't drag me into the discussion about the needs of telemetry because I dont need it.
