How does that play with (1) us wanting to have beta as near to release

it to release and (2) us shipping the exact release builds to the beta
channel in the week before release?
For (2), does that mean telemetry would suddenly turn off for people
when they get this build as an update and then turn on again when they
get beta 1 of the next cycle?
For #1, this is a change, and I think it's one that we've decided is
worth the risk.
For #2, Good question, and I didn't think through what would happen in
that case. Currently that's controlled by the
MOZ_TELEMETRY_ON_BY_DEFAULT flag which is a build flag. But I don't want
the beta-on-release case to disable experiments or other telemetry, so I
think we'll try to key the default off of the channel.
Thanks for bringing up that detail!
