Describe the Bug

When the app is started, it opens unwanted connections to content-autofill.googleapis.com on my phone. As you suspected in https://github.com/floccusaddon/floccus/discussions/962#discussioncomment-3222279 it really seems related to the Webview component that is used in the app.

A quick web search for that domain showed, that there are few similar reports for other apps. E.g. here https://www.kuketz-blog.de/lineageos-webview-bug-ungewollte-verbindungen-zu-content-autofill-googleapis-com/ However the phone, where this issue is observed, is a Samsung Galaxy S9+ with Android 10. Not rooted or modded in any way.

Expected Behavior

Do not open unwanted and unneeded connections to Google services. Especially when option 'allow network usage" (for favicons, etc.) is not set.

To Reproduce

Just start the app.
