Do yourself a favor, install e.g. opensnitch, then you’ll see with your own eyes. 
Do me a favor and tell me if you know already. Post some info/facts and I believe you.
I am interested in the
part.
You could open a new thread for this. I’m sure many KDE Plasma and GNOME users will be interested.
I also wanted to ask where Gnome 44 is, then I saw this topic. Gnome 44.1 arrived with this morning’s updates. Who notices and what differences compared to Gnome 43 are obvious at first?
any improvements with fractional scaling ?
I followed your advice.
Still I fail to to see how GNOME gathers information on my “computing-behavior” and “publicize” it.
I allowed two processes related to GNOME to connect to Internet:
Gnome Extension Manager
Open Weather (extension)
That is what I decided to do myself.
None of the above is part of GNOME DE as such. They are things I have installed myself and obviously for functioning as interned, they need network connection.
I don’t see anything else related to GNOME (gnome-shell) asking for permission for network connection.
Gnome 44 is here! (I think)

Can you please elaborate on this? What does "publicizing” mean? Putting it on a public web page or what?
What do you mean with “your computing-behavior”? What is that?
I have been using a computer at work with pop os, so far no problem with the fractional scaling and different screen resolutions. I regularly connect my laptop to different screens and projectors and everything scales and is stable, no crashes. Scaling has in quarter increments 100, 125, 150% etc.

I tried what you posted above but the extensions won’t install. I get an error message. 
Edit: Okay I think i figured it out except nothing is showing apps? How does that work?
