Comment 2 for bug 944251

Well, I also think this is a valid bug. These connections seems to be on all time, regardless of the fact that I *do not* change my timezone several times in an hour and also I do not search for videos all the time on the machine.

I just blocked the ip's on the firewall to fix this. I also uninstalled the video packet doing this shit (well, first I uninstalled all ubuntu-one packets, I got a hint they could be causing this. Don't mind, do not need ubuntu-one). Unfortunately uninstalling the geoip would uninstall also some important packets. There should be a checkbox to disable this. Some people does not want their machines to upkeep the internet connection for nothing.

There should not be any this kind of all-time-on conenctions. As the original bug reporter says, that's not the linux way of working.
