Hey, what the actual F is this?

If I'm understanding this correctly, Dolphin is trying to make connections to ad servers? And it's doing it through the thumbnail process. I caught a whole bunch of attempts, including to ad.pubmatic.com and other questionable ones besides doubleclick and etc. What is going on? It shouldn't be making any such connections one way or the other from a file manager.. (I normally don't use Dolphin, but Spectacle is ignoring my default file manager setting and manually opening Dolphin instead.)

EDIT: Figured it out. It was generating previews of .html files with such references. A file manager still should not do this though... Only Dolphin does. @kde I don't think it should do this.
