What is the impact of a customer opting out of the ServiceNow Content Service for specific models?

When a customer opts out of the ServiceNow Content Service for specific models, one of the significant consequences is that unrecognized data from those models will not be sent to the ServiceNow Content Service. This means that anything related to those specific models that the Content Service does not recognize will simply not be shared. Consequently, this also leads to the customer not receiving updates to the Content Library, which is critical for maintaining the most current information and resources about their hardware assets.

By opting out, customers forfeit the benefit of receiving vital updates and enriched data that could enhance the management of their hardware assets. The interaction with the Content Service is designed to improve asset management through regularly updated information, and the decision to opt out therefore removes those advantages entirely. This is why the correct answer encompasses both the lack of data transmission and the inability of the customer to receive Content Library updates, making it the most comprehensive choice that highlights the consequences of opting out.
