A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.
Some Rules
- Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn't great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post
- Don't promote proprietary software
- Try to keep things on topic
- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience

they are claiming that you have to be signed into chrome, the browser, in order to open an incognito window.
yea, it sounds a little crazy. i don't use chrome, so i can't confirm that's the case. i haven't run into any articles claiming this either, just this post and one other elsewhere awhile back that does.
OK then this is my culture shock because I've never "signed in" to a browser in my life. All I want to know is what are people signing in to?
Likely related to that lawsuit they're dealing with
