My browser isn't supposed to have any 'backend services'. Especially not backend services that I did not explicitly opt in to.

It's not a backend service on your browser, it's on whatever webpage you tried to visit.

I really don't get this comment after a whole thread full of good information on this.

No, it's in the browser. Turn off all data collection and the bug disappears.

lower in the linked thread:

> Telemetry has nothing to do with this, it just happens to be one of the first services with H3 load balancer.

This bug can be triggered without visiting any webpage at all.
