Can’t you disable it though or block the connection?



No developer should be rationally expected to do that. SSH doesn't ship with telemetry or tracking, you shouldn't have to modify the default to make the software behave the way it was intended to; this is runtime-level coercion. You either consider it a feature, or you see it as a bug.

Plus, if you know what OCSP is and care about it, chances are you don't use MacOS anymore. Nobody who conscientiously objects to OCSP tracking should be assenting to the rest of MacOS and it's perverse sense of "security".


But you don't have to on Linux.

Like there's just so much crap you have to do to make these non-free OSes pleasant or private and it's always blowing up. Linux mostly "just works" OOTB.
