I know we already got another thread about this topic, but I wanted to highlight the stance of home assistant for this topic.

I really don’t see how you can argue with this post. Well, I can, but I really don’t want to think about it.

      I’m blocking my bridge’s access to the internet right now, just in case they push an update for this. I never use the Hue app anyway.

      Hmm, maybe. Depends on the infrastructure they put up. If there is a separate domain for the telemetry, then you can block it. Still no guarantee that it still works though.

      The app will need internet access to login though. That really is a cat and mouse game that is not worth your time I’d say.
