Connection attempt to DigitalOcean

[lcsfox]

Hi,
I'm evaluating the docker (compose) version and I'm noticing some connection attempts to an IP block used by DigitalOcean.
I've read about the automatic update check to GitHub, but that's not it and I cannot find anything in the documentation regarding this.
Can you explain what's the reason behind this request?

Hi,

When you set 2FAuth to fetch official logos it makes a request to get a resource from the https://2fa.directory api.

Currently there are 3 cases where 2Fauth makes an outgoing request:

• New version checking
• Official logo fetching
• When a scanned QR code contains a URL to an online image to use as an icon

The connection attempt happened at 00:00 when the app was not in use so the QR code scanning was not the cause.,
I have the option "Get official icons" disabled and only have 3 otps not related in any way to DigitalOcean.
I'll try to do a packet cap on the firewall and share additional info.
The IP in qustion is 146.190.3.114.

Do you run the official docker image from dockerhub?

It turns out it was another container sending analytics data to DigitalOcean. Sorry for the bother.
Nice work on the application tho. It's awesome
