Hehe, there's no telemetry at all. It just points to the same docs' favicon (that is not even measured). Just to make a simple and easy to recognize UX. The same way JS and CSS for Swagger and ReDoc come from a JS CDN instead of forcing developers to figure out a way to serve those static assets.
But anyway, if you want to remove the favicon from Swagger UI, it's also in the docs: https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/advanced/extending-openapi/#sel...
