This PR closes https://github.com/fleetdm/fleet/issues/21108 @noahtalerman, I double-checked all redirects, and they are working. Clicking through the URLs in [this spreadsheet](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1djVynIMuJK4pT5ziJW12CluVqcaoxxnCLaBO3VXfAt4/edit?usp=sharing) is a pretty quick way to go through them all. Note that "Audit logs" and "Understanding host vitals" redirect to the contributor docs on GitHub, so they will throw a 404 until this is merged. Some new guides benefitted from a name change, so they make more sense as stand-alone guides, and also so that we don't have to mess around with more redirects later. Those name changes followed [this convention](https://fleetdm.com/handbook/company/communications#headings-and-titles), which was recently documented in the handbook. Have fun! --------- Co-authored-by: Eric <eashaw@sailsjs.com> Co-authored-by: Noah Talerman <noahtal@umich.edu>

Statistics contain no personal information about any particular device or person.
For Fleet Free instances, usage statistics are anonymous. The "organization" property is reported as "unknown."
Sending Usage statistics from your Fleet Free instance is optional and can be disabled.
Note: Usage statistics are not optional for Fleet Premium instances.
Why should we enable usage statistics?
Help make Fleet better! Fleet has wide adoption, but limited avenues for quantifying this. We need a way of measuring whether the enhancements and new features we ship are actually working.
Every time we ship a Fleet release without usage statistics, it's like launching a shiny, expensive new rocket into space without any way to find out what happens to it. Up until now, we've relied heavily on talking to users and working closely with customers and other community members. That's helped a lot! But it doesn't give us visibility into the problems other users might be having.
Insights about Fleet version adoption helps the team be more efficient when planning upgrade guides, release notes, and future security notices for users running vulnerable software versions.
