Without looking into the details the ability to piggyback on the excempts or add excempts should be considered a bug.
If it required root/admin then all bets would already be off when it comes to malware and host based firewalls.
As for people regarding this as a privacy breach then that’s another thing, only real possibility then would probably be a VPN and firewall the traffic at a central point.
