Zotero phones home with perhaps more information than you expect.[1]
By default, there's a persistent connection whenever Zotero is running, a request when you visit a site with a translator (eg NYTimes) the first time since a browser start, when you download a PDF, etc.
I enjoyed using it, but their approach to privacy felt creepy. That [1] is somewhat improved... but only somewhat.
