Attempts to contact external telemetry servers under default configuration is the issue. That not all of the needlessly locally aggregated data would actually be transmitted is separate.

This changed somewhat recently. Telemetry is enabled by default (I think as of Golang 1.23?)

I am only aware since I relatively recently ran into something similar to this on a fresh VM without internet egress: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/68976

https://github.com/golang/go/issues/68946

If golang doesn't fully address this I guess Debian really should at least change the default (of they haven't already).

EndeavourOS preferred over Manjaro.
