Hi all,

Read this:

LOL, I removed every bit of KDE, its executables and libraries, in
2012. Mostly for the same reasons I refuse to host systemd. Now comes
the possibility of ads on KDE applications.

But it's even worse, because Qt is doing it, so non-KDE apps might be
involved, including the LXQt I've recommended as an alternative to
the deprecated LXDE.
