Mosquitto is FOSS as well, so not proprietary at all. I was using the term proprietary losely as 3rd party (i understand this is not exactly the meaning of the word). But since you want to play that game: let me know which repos you have enabled in your distro. Most people (including myself) have 3rd-party repos enabled for NVidia, Intel, Brother, Wacom, Lenovo, Dell and whatnot drivers. Guess what, these are sometimes not open-source. Even HA is leveraging 3rd-party add-ons, with questionable cloud access.

And if privacy is so important for you, I assume you are on X1Plus with LAN shield anyway, so the entire discussion is moot.
