I agree.

It doesn't seem like a very useful "utility" anyway.  It retrieves a single URL https://fedoraproject.org/static/hotspot.txt and checks for "OK" in the contents. 

So, in the case where fedoraproject.org is unavailable due to downtime or a network outage close to the destination you'll get a yellow ! on your icon which can cause confusion to the end-user.  It sure did for me.  I had the yellow ! yet I was surfing, googling, and sending emails.  So, had no idea what it was trying to tell me.  In the end, it isn't telling me much.
