I just downloaded and installed both STM32CubeIDE and STM32CubeProgrammer.
They both forcibly installed with user-spying phone-home features how I use the software, while only mentioning how to disable the feature after they have been installed.
So, the spying feature is on by default, and there is even no option to opt-out of the feature at install stage.
I don't believe this is GDPR compliant and thus illegal in the EU. Please fix this before someone makes a GDPR report of this and you get fined.
If you start harassing your users with spying features, I can also start taking my money elsewhere and buy other MCUs.

Another update,
The IDE wont let me generate code without logging in to myst from the IDE.
This seems nuts.
