Think of it as the scripts that run on CI/CD actions running unit tests. If a unit test fails, the test artifacts are uploaded to an artifact repository, and then, get this - the test runner instance is destroyed! But we don't think of that as unusual or nefarious.
That's a particularly unhelpful analogy. Car telemetry is linked to real world physical objects and real human suffering, whereas CI/CD actions may be linked to the happiness of a project manager etc.
