Don't know much about it yet, and it is undoubtedly is a useful service. However looking at that page boasting telemetry and noticing an always running fwupd process running here as root it looks like this is probably leaking information thru its comm channel.

Does anyone know why this is running 24/7? I don't expect my firmware to be changing minute to minute. I need to get OpenSnitch running to keep an eye on these things, heard it was making it into Debian and hopefully derivatives soon.
