Hey Camu,

I have been noticing a lot of failed HTTP calls to http://wordpress.cloudapp.net. Here is an example of it:

http://wordpress.cloudapp.net/api/update/?&url=http%3A%2F%2Fben.lobaugh.net%2Fblog%2F49034%2Fturn-email-smtp-back-on-in-os-x-mountain-lion%2Fcomment-page-1&agent=Mozilla%2F5.0+%28Windows+NT+6.1%3B+WOW64%29+AppleWebKit%2F535.19+%28KHTML%2C+like+Gecko%29+Chrome%2F18.0.1025.1634+Safari%2F535.19+YE&v=11&ip=218.72.139.97&p=9

Looks like that service is having a 503 error.

What is this supposed to be doing? Plugins are not supposed to call home without asking the user first. I am not particularly a fan of plugins making external connections without warning me.

Hi Ben,

This feature had been highlighted in the changelog a while ago. You can disable it in the options by setting Enable ADN to No. I see your point, though, and I will work on it.

Best
Camu

Looks like they have an outage again. And we have extra milliseconds due to that error

Please set it to NO in the options ( Settings > Advanced, enable UAN ). Sorry for the inconvenience, we’re looking into this.
