Guys, What is the chromium browser doing with 'spdy' and what all information is it collecting? Familiarizing myself with it a little more I was browsing ~/.config/chromium/Preferences and ran across: "spdy": { "servers": [ "toolbarqueries.google.com:443", "lh3.googleusercontent.com:443", "ssl.google-analytics.com:443", "fls.doubleclick.net:443", "clients2.google.com:443", "chrome.google.com:443", "checkout.google.com:443", "lh5.googleusercontent.com:443", "www.gstatic.com:443", "lh4.googleusercontent.com:443", "ssl.gstatic.com:443", "fonts.googleapis.com:443", "googleads.g.doubleclick.net:443", "lh6.googleusercontent.com:443", "www.googleadservices.com:443", "plusone.google.com:443", "www.google.com:443", "clients2.googleusercontent.com:443" ] }, Immediately "fls.doubleclick.net:443" jumped out as something I really didn't want my browser communicating with. A quick look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SPDY disclosed you could examine the spdy session with chrome://net-internals/#events&q=type:SPDY_SESSION%20is:active and looking at that showed 1949 events captured with 1 active. WTF?? Looking at the 'Events' tab a clearing the Filter: window showed quite a bit of information from the sites open and visited. What is this stuff and is it something to be concerned about? -- David C.
