Most people don't know or care what their products are sending to the vendor. I like to see what is connecting to what with https://www.pfsense.org/ But I might be the only person in 100 mile radius doing so. I can also remote desktop from anywhere of my choice, with the rest of the world unable to connect. Pretty much all of my online services are either restricted to specific IPs (cameras, remote desktop and similar). Or they have one or more countries and other problem IPs blocked. (web sites and email services). None of that is possible when the vendor is in control because users will want their camera pictures available anywhere.
