[Qgis-user] Data Privacy

[Johannes Kröger (WhereGroup)]

Afaik: If your data includes references to external URIs/URLs (like XML 
documents with schemata) then there *might* be processes involved that 
will try to make network requests to them. This can also happen with 
GeoPackages, e.g. if styles reference external URLs. Or a VRT that uses 
remote data sets. Or a .lyr file that has a remote server in it. Etc.
