Even Google's Own Staff Thinks 'Incognito,' Isn’t That Great

  This is really simple --- Google = privacy invasion. If the name "Google" Is attached to it, privacy invasion is baked into it. If you want privacy, don't drink the Google.

  > It’s worth noting that Twohill sent that email after multiple users filed a multi-billion dollar class action privacy lawsuit against Google for allegedly tracking users while using Incognito Those multiple users are probably reading this right now.

  Quality tech journalism as usual. Reporter heard one person at Google (which has 150K employees) memed about something, another sent an email. What do they want? Google to build a VPN into Chrome for incognito? I can only imagine the same articles this hack would write about how terrible that is.

  The ironic drawback to Incognito is that your ad blockers no longer work. So you choose between some amount of privacy, or all the amount of advertising. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

    Because you haven’t enabled that extension in incognito mode?
