Got this notification when I opened Chrome when coming back to my desk after lunch.
“We changed our privacy settings to allow us to snoop on what you’re looking at and shove you ads accordingly. Feel free to opt out, but we’ll probably opt you back in when you aren’t paying attention.”

Uh. Google is an advertising agency. Their entire business model is collecting data. Chrome is made by Google, ergo the ad company that Chrome uses is Google because Chrome is Google.
Nowhere does it say they collect browsing history. There are multiple places across their site where they explicitly say they do not.

Do you even remember what conversation we were having?

That’s the sound of someone who realizes they forgot what conversation they were having and refused to admit it. That’s okay, it happens to the best of us
