When Firefox launches it makes several connection to googleusercontent and other sites. Would like to understand what data it is sending to these web sites.

/ # netstat -nputw | grep firefox tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:54338 127.0.0.1:11443 ESTABLISHED 2065885/firefox tcp 0 0 9.3.147.179:58328 34.117.237.239:443 ESTABLISHED 2065885/firefox
