Like me, yes.  I black-hole anything that tries to use the Internet without permission as a general rule.
The behavior that occurs when unable to phone home is, as far as I can tell, absolutely nothing.
What I don't know is what the behavior for being ABLE to phone home is, given that I will not allow such a thing! If anyone can tell me what THAT is, I'd be curious.
