True, but it's not in their interest to blackmail people.
If people knew people who were being actively extorted in relation to their google searches then everyone would switch to Bing or DDG in a second.
- mgkimsal 13y agoIt's really not just your google searches though - every site you visit that runs adwords is reporting your info back to google - just visiting a site directly can leak info, regardless of searches. Search history is obviously the low-hanging fruit, but Google's tentacles reach pretty far.
