I feel Google’s ability to track and profile you extends far beyond your IP address and/or a login

  Not really. I set my VPN endpoint to Sweden, disabled adblock and Google started showing me ads in Swedish. Also back when I still used my Google acc they showed me ads for things that I've already bought. Their adtech stuff is way dumber than you think it is.

    I guess they created a browser and continuously push for more sources of tracking data via web browser features/standards just for fun. Gotcha

      That browser requires an account. Most people use it with a google account, because they are using gmail and other google services. So their adtech doesn't need to be that smart. Why bother trying to track a Firefox user who uses a VPN and an adblock when most of your users don't even bother to hide from you?
