I know you feel like you've discovered some great evil plot here, but my advice to you is this: block it, deal with it, or use something other than Sigil. Or compile Sigil yourself and edit out the offending connection attempt. We provide instructions for building Sigil yourself. That's the beauty of open source.
Where is the option to disable checking for updates?
I cannot see one in Preferences.
