Does Linux have this “feature” too?

Linux per se, no. Some implementations of Linux might, but since it’s open source, you can read the source code and cut out or modify any bits you don’t like. That’s the whole point of open source: you’re not buying a license when you get your copy, you own your copy (which you probably got free, though maybe you paid to get some support services from one of the Linux distro companies and got it on a disk you bought from them) and can do what you want with it.
