"But the conclusion is frightening : it means that the content of every webpage visited using Google Chrome is sent back to Google."
This is how it always worked and the number one reason I'm avoiding Google Chrome.
- viraptor 8y agoThis neither is nor was true though. In this context pages are sent only if you are on a page which looks like it could be translated and you request the translation. That's a long way from "every page"
- pbhjpbhj 8y agoIn another thread here the OP is quoted as saying Chrome sent the data even when translation is disabled.
- viraptor 8y agoDisabled for specific languages. That means either: the page was misclassified as a different language, or there's a bug affecting those preferences, or it was a user mistake and the translation was turned on.
