Can you link to a Google Analytics API call in Chromium? It's OSS.

Edit: Chromium connects to Google servers to update extensions and for captive portal detection. Firefox does pretty much the same.

Firefox does something similar, but calls it Firefox Health Reports. See https://blog.mozilla.org/metrics/fhr-faq/

(note that I think there's nothing wrong with this at all, just pointing out that this isn't chromium-specific)
