Extensis Connect is marketed & designed to help users stay in compliance with their font licenses. But it still may not be in the best interests of users for their server-based license/usage tracking tool to be owned by Monotype, the dominant retailer/distributor of font licenses.
Before they killed FontExplorer, you might have thought that being owned by Monotype/Linotype made it more likely to survive. But obviously that did not happen.
So, this acquisition is not great news for end users.
