While the team has announced that Audacity will begin collecting telemetry, it's neither overly broad in scope nor aggressive in how it acquires the data-and the majority of the real concerns were addressed two months ago, to the apparent satisfaction of the actual Audacity community. However, the negativity seems to be both massively overblown and quite late. Audacity is free and open source, relatively easy to use, cross platform, and ideally suited for simple "prosumer" tasks like editing raw audio into finished podcasts. This would be very alarming if true-there aren't any obvious successors or alternatives which meet the same use cases.
Over the fourth of July weekend, several open source news outlets began warning readers that the popular open source audio editing app Audacity is now "spyware."
