HUB auth user info request failed

I left my office computer with Unity and the hub open at Wednesday. When I arrived here today, I found 600 versions of this warning in the console:
"HUB auth user info request failed, Reason: HTTP requests disabled because it reached the maximum number of failing requests (0)."

A new copy of the warning pops up every 5 seconds, which means that the warnings has been printing for just under an hour. That means that the "HUB auth user info request" started failing after the hub/Unity had been open for about 48 hours in a row.


Aside from the obvious issue of a failed request happening. there's a couple of issues here:
- I don't care. Please don't have internal hub communication errors bubble up to our console.
- Why is Unity communicating with the Hub all the time? That makes no sense to me. That doesn't add any value to us as Unity users, please stop doing that.
- Unlike a lot of other users, I honestly want the hub to close after it's done it's job. Not go hide in the tray, but stop running. I prefer software that I don't need to be running to not be running.

 

Version is 0.16 - that's the latest one, right?

For the communication - what happens when I close the hub? Does the Unity instance itself take over the user information stuff? The hub's really great for managing projects, but I don't care about your cloud services or anything else that's tied to my user account. I get that it's necessary for authentication purposes, but I'd rather see as little of it as possible.
