On: Homebrew now sends usage information to Google Analytics

[Confiks]

But then, by which mechanism does Homebrew notify GA that I have opened a terminal tab? There is a curl command executed every time, and I see a connection to GA with Little Snitch.

Is there some way to see the caller of a process? htop displays no parent in the tree view.

You probably have something in your .bashrc, or shell equivalent, that is launching brew.
