During the install in the Update notifications block, request an opt-out option be provided for sending information back to durpal.org. This was set under component:install system, but could also be accessed from other configuration pages.

Update Notifications requires that information be sent back to drupal.org to work. The way to opt-out is to disable update notifications.

Thus, I think this is "works as designed"

In principle, sending information from a site back to anywhere without being provided an option to disable it is wrong. I see by your post that there is a way to disable this but unless I had made this post in the first place I may have never discovered this.
