avahi-daemon is a systemd package, when I see it running I turn it off
and suffer no ill effect. If you do not have systemd installed it can
not turn avahi-daemon back on, but I'm still testing that in devuan.
It's sewn into a lot of packages, can control both audio and video
without any help from you., Got a web-cam? Click., Got a mic?, with
systemd installed your ass is grass because it can do what ever it wants
to do and you can't do anything about it, don't believe me take a look
at debian systemd bugs, there are hundreds of them and the bad bugs tell
you that systemd does what ever the F*** it wants to do and as far as I
can see does the user absolutely no good. But if you do have it
installed and disconnect from the internet the kernel will call avahi to
bring the internet up and it will. I don't like that and is why I
stopped the avahi-daemon. But that's not all, when the kernel sees avahi
is not running it binds with the NIC and ask for a HTTP address and that
is where my firewall stops it. At least devuan is able to log these
things, with system log I can see every system reaction to what I do and
systemd packages do not like what I do, a perfect system would never
have systemd packages or watered down security.

I have my own way to set up the internet, so can't help you there, but
will tell you recently youtube was down and quite a few experienced
computer users thought their compute was broke, that's google if you did
not know, here it made the morning news, but I already knew about it.

I'm up at anytime and asleep at anytime, installing and configuring
computers for a user is what I do.

Do you think Debian will ever admit to making a BIG F***** mistake? Or
just let the evidence keep piling up and do nothing about it, the oldest
systemd bug goes back 7 years and 214 days ago and it's still not fixed,
seriously does that sound like Debian?, When they found the watered down
encryption, at that time I don't think most developers realized that it
is by design and is why devuan needs it own security including its own
kernel. All I can do is test.
