As far as I know, GDPR only applies to data that somehow relates to a person. If telemetry e.g. only sent build number + backtrace for crashes and the IP address wasn't logged, it seems like that would be allowed under GDPR.

How does it sent back data without revealing the source IP address? :)

I don't think GDPR attaches to every piece of data that one could hypothetically observe.

It attaches to date you

observe. I am sure the IP address is part of that. Enough to make the thing GDPR relevant.
If someone complains they're going to have a bad time.
