When I startup Google-chrome it &quot;phones home&quot; - makes a TLS connection to Google and exchnages some data. Does anyone know what this data is?<p>It happens with the open source version as well... so this must be documented, and there must be a way to turn it off?<p>Edit: 1. You can confirm this using a network traffic analyzer.
2. Start page is set to about:blank
