Many jurisdictions are passing or have already passed laws that require users ability to opt-out of data collection. Are you willing to add this option?

I did research on GDPR as that seemed to have the strictest requirements and didn't see anything requiring opt-out. And in my case explicit consent isn't required since I'm collecting only what's necessary to run my service (at minimum, a hardwareId that uniquely identifies the device). For breezy-desktop specifically, the application would be non-functional without a license, since it can't determine whether to allow for a trial period without requesting a license and my backend storing a record of the trial license. With all that said, I'm perfectly willing to add an opt-out option if that's what the law requires; for the XR Gaming steam deck plugin, plenty of features will still be useable, but as I said for breezy desktop all functionality would be disabled.
