Unsolved How de-googled is QWebEngine?
-
I'm using QWebEngine to make a browser and I'd like to know how much it communicates with Google, considering that it's based on Chromium.
Does it send anything like telemetry to Google?
I'm 100% against the modern data harvesting phenomenon and I don't want my own browser to be part of the data leeching dystopia. -
Google Chrome sends data to Google, but Chromium doesn't as far as I know.
To double-check, use WireShark to inspect the packets sent by your Qt WebEngine app. Or inspect the source code at https://github.com/qt/qtwebengine-chromium
