How can CLI usage be measured, while respecting end-user's privacy?

The CLI is a critical part of the developer experience. Often, it's the first interface for developers to interact with your product. However, with Open Source products, it's difficult to know if and how end-users are using your product. Even though telemetry data might be very interesting for the product team, it's important to respect the end-user's privacy; we need to ensure that no sensitive data is collected.

Only collect data on how end-users use the CLI to interact with your product, and stay inside those boundaries.

#!/usr/bin/env bash

# Protip! You can add this to your gitconfig as a custom git command:
# 1. open `~/.gitconfig`
# 2. if the [alias] block doesn't exist, create it
# 3. add the following line:
#       remove-remote-merged = !git-remove-remote-merged
# 4. Save the file, now you can do:
#       git remove-remote-merged

  Gitlab offers the option to configure Kubernetes clusters (either on group level or project level) to be able to view pods
  logs, and more all from the web UI. However, they advise to configure cluster-admin as a Cluster Role for the Serviceaccount
  that you use to set up access from Gitlab to your cluster.
  IMO, these permissions are too wide, as I'm not using Gitlab to manage deployments, that is done through Terraform in my case.
  This should have been documented somewhere in the Gitlab documentation, especially since Gitlab acknowledges that many users
  find the permissions too wide: https://about.gitlab.com/blog/2021/02/22/gitlab-kubernetes-agent-on-gitlab-com/
  
  The Terraform code below includes all RBAC permissions required to view your clusters in Gitlab, as well as view the
  deployment, including the number of pods. Furthermore, it allows for log viewing in Gitlab as well. Permissions are mainly
