Wouldn't that be amazing! I have single frames of good videos stuck in my head that I can never find again.

I don’t believe for a second that they are actually going to delete any data they stole from users.
Oops offshore backup mysteriously occurred.
The raw data might be purged but no one talks about the ML modal that google trained with that data.
Of course they will! First you make a copy, then you delete the copy. Contractual terms satisfied.

Incognito was literally only good for opening a second session without you logged in. It did zero for privacy. Even their disclaimer said so.
Incognito, you mean porn mode?
Its a moot point once you sign into your Facebook account to "share with friends"

Incognito/Private Browsing came about when people were sharing computers more often. It doesn’t save history and cookies and whatnot on your device. It’s to prevent the next user from getting in to your bank account.
Google and whoever else will still know your IP and can use that to cross-reference whatever other data they have on you.

You’ve gone Incognito. Others who use this device won’t see your activity, so you can browse more privately. This won't change how data is collected by websites you visit and the services they use, including Google. Downloads, bookmarks and reading list items will be saved.
- Google Chrome
If anyone thought that Incognito somehow protected their data from websites or services, then that's their fault for jumping to that conclusion in the face of everything saying that's not the case.

In lawsuits settlement
In meme sentence, words disappear.
That was actually their lawyer's argument, that "incognito mode" being private was just something people assumed and ran with, not their fault.
I mean, they called it "Incognito".
Incognito: having one's true identity concealed
If it doesn't conceal your identity, then that's pretty clearly misleading. They're not selling to experts, the users of this are laypeople. It's like if you sold a "waterproof phone" and the packaging all made it look like it could withstand water, but then when it got wet it broke and you were like "people just assumed it was waterproof, it's not our fault".
Sure experts could tell, and enthusiasts would read the expert opinions on it, but that's not something you should expect of laypeople considering how it is presented.
It IS local incognito. By definition the name is accurate.
The wording on the warning both BEFORE AND AFTER the change says explicitly websites you visit, and anything external WILL still record and track you.
It said BEFORE AND AFTER that ONLY local things such as history omor cookies arnt saved.
It is 100% incognito. For the local browser. It warms BEFORE AND AFTER that it's not real privacy.
They changed the wording basically from an assumption people will read the examples given on the SAME page as the warning. To having the examples built into the warning.
Basically they assumed their users could read. They were wrong, people can't read. So they have to scream it now.
"local Incognito" is some real mental gymnastics. If the witness protection program told people they'd help them go incognito, but only hid them from their own families and made it easy for strangers and enemies to find them, would you really consider that be what a reasonable interpretation?
Stop defending people who use shit like huge ToS docs and dark patterns to weasel out of deceptive marketing

Um was this surprising to anyone? I think we all assumed that this was the case no???
Doesn't it specifically say on a new incognito tab that this doesn't protect against sites or service providers from gathering information....and only stops you from storing local information (history, cookies, etc)? Do people actually think that incognito is adding privacy protection?
That was actually a result of this issue, where Google placed misleading statements in incognito and then proceeded to actively go around them.
It actually had bullet points below the initial warning that said websites could track you.
The big warning on top was fine before. It could have been worded better and the update made its wording better. But below that warning it's always had bullet points over examples of what it would and would not save in website tracking as well as browser data from searches could be saved. Sure, they didn't explicitly say Google would save your data, but Google being a web browser falls under that bullet point and Google being a website falls under that bullet point. A website falls under that bullet point.
This is people not being able to understand what words mean.
