Dynamic Telemetry Enablement/Disablement

[awonglk]

We are currently using this enviornment variable setting to turn on prompt logging:
SEMANTICKERNEL_EXPERIMENTAL_GENAI_ENABLE_OTEL_DIAGNOSTICS_SENSITIVE

My understanding is that this is a global setting that is set once during startup only.
I am wondering if there is a way to dynamically enable/disable this logging, say based on user privacy preference?

This would help us to balance the ability to collects stats we need to improve our product, but also respect user's privacy where user prefers not to have their chat session to be logged

@awonglk Are you using .NET or Python? In .NET, it should be possible to update this environment variable in runtime, not sure about Python though.

Using Python.
