The fact that it can do it in the first place means it can do it at all. Just because they require the selection now, doesn't mean they aren't harvesting telemetry 24/7, and won't "accidentally" enable this feature later.

    they will not be caught

    They would get caught tho, there's always some turbo nerd that has a network monitor up and will notice the traffic being sent out. I do it sometimes when I actually have to use chrome, but that's just my growing distrust of Google.

    Now, whether or not they face repercussions is another story.
