I feel that the phrasing "the pip project" is a little awkward here. It's the program, not the project, that we're talking about. Can't we just say "Pip does not collect any telemetry..."? If this is a circumlocution to avoid the debate over whether we capitalise "pip" at the start of a sentence, I'd rather just have that debate now (IMO, we should capitalise - "pip" is just a word like any other, it shouldn't have special capitalisation rules).

Having said this, I really don't care that much - if another maintainer wants to approve this PR as it stands, I'm fine with that.

Honestly I agree on this, Pip does not collect any telemetry sounds more fitting imo.

OK, here's my suggested change:

I'll wait a while in case any other maintainers care enough to object, otherwise I'll make this change and merge.
