The new disclaimer found in Google Chrome Canary adds a new sentence that clarifies how Incognito mode works.
Google Chrome Canary is showing a new disclaimer for Incognito mode.
The new disclaimer warns that Incognito mode won’t change how data is collected by the websites and services you use.
The change comes shortly after Google settled a class-action lawsuit about its lack of transparency around how Incognito mode works.
In 2020, Google was sued for allegedly violating federal wiretap laws. The issue stemmed from Chrome’s Incognito mode, with plaintiffs arguing that the mode does not fully protect users from internet tracking.
