No, I believe it is because the Chrome as a browser works in conjunction with Gmail and other google properties' logins to kinda figure out that you're a human.

One of the things, if it ever gets there, would be for the anti-trust probe, if any, to look at how Google shares data between its browser, Chrome, and it's other services.
- ehsankia 7y agoHow would the website code communicate with the browser, unless it was some open API you can refer to. As for "in conjunction with Gmail", yes that's called cookies.
- fjsolwmv 7y agoGoole websites (and frames in other websites) share information with Chrome browser. That's what the Chrome Login brouhaha was all about.
- ehsankia 7y agoFrom my understanding, that's just expanded cookies. The Chrome frame can see the cookie from your Gmail, and also log you in the browser, and vice versa. Nothing magical going on, just cookies.
