1) Select "Never" at the end. 2) Why? It's not leaking data outside your IP: it's getting the conversion rates for a bunch of currencies. Disabling by default would end up breaking the entire point of having a convenient currency converter.
@ebassi 1. Thank you. That was not intuitive at all 2. Serious? I'm not going to argue why its wrong that a _calculator_ calls European Central Bank (yes it also calls there) when I opens it and want to add 2+2. That should be obvious. The currency converter is a very very tiny feature in this calculator that I didn't even know about until now and have no need of using. Anyway, it's fine to have it, but I should be made aware of this.
