If those diagnoses are correct that the probes are for subdomains of the local hosts's domain, then I don't understand grounds to fault Google. The probes should cause no additional traffic to the roots, gTLD servers, or anything outside the user's ISP's network. Whether the local system thinks it is in something bogus like the "computer." domain or something reasonable, the Google Chrome probes should hit entries in the ISP's recursive servers's caches.
