Syncing data between chrome environments is different than mining usage data across google's properties. It sounds like that's the beef here. Children are required to use the Chrome systems, and parents have no say in the matter, or control over how Google uses the data.
- lsaferite 11y agoWhere did they present proof that Google is data mining vs. just syncing data across devices?
- natch 11y agoIt's Google. Any plaintext data they are in possession of is mined by definition. If all they wanted was sync, they could use some flavor of secure key exchange to protect it, as others do.

- Sephr 11y agoYou can set a sync passphrase that is separate from your Google password.
