Hi Team

I have Server version: 8.0.39-30.1 Percona XtraDB Cluster (GPL) and have Telemetry ON.

```auto
root@localhost [(none)]> select table_schema, table_name, column_name from information_schema.columns where table_name='threads' and column_name like 'tele%' ;
+--------------------+------------+------------------+
| TABLE_SCHEMA | TABLE_NAME | COLUMN_NAME |
+--------------------+------------+------------------+
| performance_schema | threads | TELEMETRY_ACTIVE |
+--------------------+------------+------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

root@localhost [(none)]> SHOW global status LIKE '%telemetry%';
+----------------------------+-------+
| Variable_name | Value |
+----------------------------+-------+
| Telemetry_traces_supported | ON |
+----------------------------+-------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

```

Kindly request your support in understanding how can I disable this option.  
NOTE: I tried to remove the “percona-telemetry-agent”, but then it has below dependencies which is making percona sotware unusable.

```auto
[root@hostname123 ~]# yum remove *percona-telemetry*
Updating Subscription Management repositories.
Dependencies resolved.
