> Telemetry: Fig has basic telemetry in order to help us make product decisions. We currently give the you option to opt out of all non-essential telemetry by running `fig settings app.disableTelemetry true`. This removes everything except for one daily ping. We use this ping to help us understand how many people were using Fig.

Have you checked this, i.e. checked your network traffic for 24 hours after installing and registering Fig?

mschrage (the author of the comment you're responding to) seems to have a personal affiliation with the project.

If you assume he's contributing here in good faith (my assumption) then I'd say it's safe to say that it does in fact disable telemetry.
