Why is Firefox trying to establish UDP connections with Google IP's every time I open it?

No extensions installed. No homepage (set to blank).

Some of the IP's: 34.107.243.93 34.128.139.172 35.244.159.8

Could be: Mozilla rents server storage on Google Cloud servers (mozgcp.net) and on Amazon AWS servers (mozaws.net) to store data used internally. It's not "Google", it's just rented server capacity.

You can check the about:networking page for more info.
