Windows pc calling home (even while asleep) - eviltoast

I have a network-wide pi hole and I noticed that it requested activity.windows.com, a url blocked by my pi hole, even while my pc is suspended. I pinged 10.0.0.217 and it is currently unreachable. So, somehow, windows pc’s turn on networking, phones home, and turns off even while suspended.

Creepy behavior

    Worth noting that you can install KDE Plasma over Pop OS.

    I love Pop OS, but hate its Desktop Environment.
