You may need to take action if your builds rely on Linux without cgo, use distroless containers, or have cross-distro deployment requirements.To opt out of systemcrypto, set the GOEXPERIMENT environment variable to include nosystemcrypto.For full documentation, see the Microsoft build of Go FIPS guide.Telemetry collection enabledThe Microsoft build of Go 1.25 introduces opt-out telemetry collection to help us prioritize features, identify performance bottlenecks, and understand real-world developer workflows. All telemetry is anonymized and handled in accordance with Microsoft's privacy policies.To disable telemetry, set the MS_GOTOOLCHAIN_TELEMETRY_ENABLED environment variable to be 0.
