Describe the enhancement or feature you'd like
Use API to detect whether the current network is billing by traffic, and if so, do not automatically check for updates. However, a switch can be added to allow users to automatically check for updates under a metered network.
At the same time, I believe that when checking for updates in a metered network, users should be reminded that this may incur additional fees.

I'm not really sure why this would be necessary?
The update check retrieves a 367 bytes (!!!!!!) object at worst once every 24 hours if ADM update is set to every day and the "check on startup" option is disabled.
If a metered connection billing is dependent on 367 bytes I think there's a different problem. You're usually connecting to the internet to do stuff, and a single HTTP request is often already larger than that.

Perhaps it's possible not to automatically download updates in metered networks.
