Comment (by rustybird):

 Here's a small patch.

 I tested it on top of TB 9.0.10 (rezipped omni.ja), with
 `extensions.update.interval` set to `60` seconds, by watching requests via
 `SETEVENTS STREAM` on a tor control port: The eff.org version check ping
 is gone. It's even more obvious if the NoScript ID is added to the patch
 as well, then there's no update traffic at all.
