The usage report is enabled by default in k6, but it is possible to opt-out using the [no-usage-report](https://grafana.com/docs/k6/latest/using-k6/k6-options/reference/#no-usage-report) option. +We always want to improve the product, but at the same time we need to pay attention where we allocate our resources.
