This bug that I reported is a great example of why Ubuntu needs to be able to
log internet connections by application/process and find a way to give users
control over outbound internet connections:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-lens-video/+bug/939140
The Dash Video Lens is connecting to the internet basically by default without
regard to active filters. This is a major problem for users who want to control
internet connection behavior for privacy reasons or for mobile broadband usage
limit reasons.
On Ubuntu, users do not have the same control that Windows & Mac provide over
Applications' ability to connect to the internet. Ubuntu users should be able
to exert this control over the applications on their computer. They should also
have an easy way to discover or be apprised of the internet connections that
occur on their computer.
