From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Prove it. It's probably background updating or something, I highly doubt it's spyware.
Also, "datas"? Excuse me.
English may not be their first language.
It's complicated to prove you that my friend told me this, it was an oral conversion with no recording, but I can swear we talked a bit about it.
It was more about the applications compiled by garuda than the system itself. He told me they were communicating with Google and other stuff a lot.
I didn't try it by myself, (and I don't have the time to install a distribution just to check that). It might be for update, it might be nothing. That's why I asked if he was using Garuda and that it was something he might want to check... Or not.
I hope you didn't need to bleach your eyes after reading my post. I have corrected the error and even added a missing word in the last sentence.
Look at the source code. Pinging Google is not necessarily a bad thing. Either way, Manjaro is worse. They really need to get their act together.
