How safe, audited and non-invasive is .net core by now? There's a .net program I have a VM for and that's kind of a pain. Since .net had telemetry by default, running bare on my machines was never an option, and Mono wouldn't even work.
In other words, if you just downloaded the .NET or .NET Core runtime to host an app, there's no .NET telemetry.
As far as the .NET SDK, you can disable telemetry by setting the environment variable `DOTNET_CLI_TELEMETRY_OPTOUT` to `1` or `true`.
[0] set DOTNET_CLI_TELEMETRY_OPTOUT environment variable to 1 or true
Why?
I don't see anything weird in data collected

Anyway, OP was worried about installing .NET because it has telemetry by default, meanwhile you can disable telemetry before running your war-app or just ship standalone? idk.
