Chrome and incognito mode: Google agrees to destroy billions of archived records

The company Google has agreed to destroy from its archives billions of records reflecting the Internet activity of users in the Chrome browser during the operation of the “incognito” mode.

According to Ukrinform, The Guardian is reporting on this issue.

“Google has agreed to delete billions of records containing personal information collected from more than 136 million people browsing the Internet through the Chrome web browser in the United States,” the statement said.

As stated, Google aims to resolve the lawsuit filed in California federal court peacefully in this way.

It turns out that activating the mode, which is supposed to guarantee the user’s anonymity and privacy on the network, does not affect Google’s data tracking. The lawsuit accuses the company of being an “unreliable source of information.”

The terms of the agreement also state that it will allow Google to block data tracking of “private” users for five years. This will impact Google’s earnings, which will collect less information that can then be monetized.

As reported by Ukrinform, Amazon, Microsoft and Google will close access to cloud services for users in Russia.
