Hello #immich #homelab friends.
Looks like a recent update to the onnx runtime adds telemetry back to Microsoft. Because *of course* we cannot have nice things.
As far as I can tell, none of this has to do with Immich per se, it's a change to an upstream runtime. To the best of my knowledge, none of the telemetry goes to immich.
You can stop the telemetry with:
- Adding `ORT_DISABLE_TELEMETRY=1` to your `.env` file, and/or
- Using pi-hole or another ad-blocking DNS server to intercept and block the requests.
PLEASE DO NOT PILE ON THE IMMICH TEAM. This looks like a tiresome update to a dependency and not any intentional action on Immich's behalf.
More details can be found in the github issue here:

@pjf@cloudisland.nz the issue has been open since August and has been, apparently, ignored. I'd say it's time to get grumpy.
