Chromium-based web browsers collect site engagement statistics
-
Hi, user with a long history should try to open:
vivaldi://site-engagement
In a report from Ghacks it was mentioned Chromium browser collect data and send it to Google.
Vivaldi collect this data but I am sure it is not send to Google,
Has anyone more information about this "issue"?Cheers, mib

@mib3berlin Pretty much sure is not sent but kept for compatibility reason, as is linked to chromium autoplay feature. We also have
vivaldi://omniboxpage but clearly no omnibox exist/is sent to google.
(Which is the main reason the API is not implemented in vivaldi).
Can be probably "leaked" only with chromium browsers which uses chrome sync. -
It would be nice if someone from the Vivaldi team commented on this matter and dispelled our concerns
