"...a Connectivity Checking feature was introduced. Ubuntu 17.10 and onwards, 
you are presented with a question mark in network status whenever a Captive 
Portal is detected. This new feature works by pinging the 
http://connectivity-check.ubuntu.com URL, time to time, in order to detect a 
captive portal."
