There's a connectivity check that's been giving out the exact same information the entire time you've had your OS installed I really do appreciate the vigilance and don't want to discourage the raw energy on display at all but this one might not be the cause to go all in on On the other side of my own argument it definitely won't hurt to chuck them a GDPR request in a month or two to see what they are gathering :)
