uBlock connect to raw.githubusercontent.com in background without user authorization

This is true. I can confirm it on my laptop.
Please explain what this connection doing, and stop doing "phone home" activity.
It looks like malware to me.

0.9.1.0 downloaded from Firefox Add-on (latest version)

Nothing to be bothered of.
