To enable MQTT reporting: #### Important update as of August, 2024
Meshtastic has [made a change to their MQTT server](https://meshtastic.org/blog/recent-public-mqtt-broker-changes/):
> Only position packets with imprecise location information [10-16 bits] will be passed to the topic, ensuring that sensitive data is not exposed.
Additionally, only the default [LoRa region](https://meshtastic.org/docs/configuration/radio/lora/#region)-based root topics (and all subtopics) are now monitored.
