It is their product.  They have the right to place limits on it.

If you have confidential data you don't want exposed, have it not 
available during any such checks.

Do you really expect VSI to have the time to do massive checking?  It is 
just an option, should some type of conflict arise.

For many, where inbound access from the internet just isn't available, 
they will need to have your system reach out to them.  You're in full 
control of that.  Well, unless they include some communications 
capability you're not aware of.

I'm not at all concerned.
