Does Anti-Beacon block the Sleep Study?

It (SS) seems to be creating a massive number of files. Fortunately they can be deleted without any ill effect.

Hello. :)
I remember searching on this when you first posted. I saw a few people online mentioning the sleep study, and perhaps some troubles with a UserNotPresentSession.etl file:

However I hit a roadblock after that because I don't know if Spybot Antibeacon does block the Sleep Study, so I didn't answer.

So in that case, you could probably contact Spybot through this anti-beacon support form I just found on the Spybot website, it looks to be the right form:
