Can this be removed, given that it has been proven false? Do you guys do that?

How is this in any way false? I just updated to the latest stable release and it turned telemetry back on, despite my old settings being off. Same as the original screenshot.

Test if for yourself if you must.

I tested with Wireshark. It does respect your previous setting if it is more restrictive.
