VSCode Remote will call 169.254.x.x via wget

I recognized that vscode remote will run a wget instance to call 169.254.x.x.

I had used Digital Ocean MetaData API so I think it seems like checking if it is running on Azure VMs via the main.js .

I checked the route that it doesn't run a server listening on this IP address and the http request must be failed.

But I am still confused about:

1. Will this cause security issues?

2. What is it doing?

3. Is there any way stop this?

Here is the log of itself:
