You can always simply install a better text editor that doesn't spy on you.
The Rust and web related extensions work pretty well. I've been using that for a while.
There are a few more around.
I would like to see some analysis of the telemetry Jetbrains sends and whether you can turn it off. It's a paid pro IDE so it wouldn't surprise me if you can really disable it because some commercial customers will not want telemetry. In high security environments it's often considered bad due to the possibility of accidentally exposing secret information.
