Look, I just want uBlock to update my subscriptions.
I don't ask you to update "3rd party list" lists or something.

Please explain what uBlock is sending what/where/when.

I suggest you stop using uBlock if your first assumption is "spyware". Find something else, there is plenty of choice out there.
