I'm not seeing this exact question answered elsewhere, but since Vivaldi is based on Chromium, does it have any code that randomly reaches out to remote servers (including but not limited to Google) aside from, of course, those which are requested by web page content?

Almost (1) all of it got removed or has option to disable, altho not always clearly explained (2). (1) it touches Vivaldi server on startup. (2) "Google Service DNS to help resolve navigational errors" equals https://medium.com/cloud-security/google-chrome-dns-security-bypass-9a1e10e02114 https://medium.com/cloud-security/google-chrome-dns-security...
