Well, technically nothing implements the pairing mechanism entirely right now so yeah, at least the pairing still phones home. I believe homeassistant requires you to use google home to pair the device to it (though that may change, the extension is still in beta)
Interesting. As far as I can see you can pair Matter devices either through the HA app itself, Apple Home or Google Home, so I don’t think it’s required. I’ll keep that in mind though before I get my first Matter device.
