it's not exactly monitory, but I disable all the requests to
matplotlib.svn.sourceforge.net via iptables:

sudo iptables -A OUTPUT -d matplotlib.svn.sourceforge.net -j DROP

and you're sure nothing passes towards that address :) and in fact,
the moment you reach an example with get_sample_data() it stops.
