It is true. QtWebEngine uses the Chromium seccomp sandbox. (I can definitely 
confirm that because bugs in the sandbox policy, such as incompatibilities 
with newer glibc versions, immediately manifest in some or all web pages 
completely failing to render. I have had to fix a couple of these. So 
seccomp is definitely used.)
