Title: Do You Suddenly Need To Delete Google Chrome?
Summary: No, you don’t need to delete Google Chrome from your device immediately. While it’s true that tracking cookies will not be stripped from the browser despite years of promises, there is no sudden threat to your bank details or phone data or identity or anything else. Instead, you should focus on ensuring Chrome is always updated and restarting it after updates to make sure it sticks.
In the article, Zak Doffman explains that Chrome is an excellent browser from a technical point of view but has major shortcomings from a privacy point of view. He emphasizes that 3 billion users are sticking steadfastly to Chrome despite efforts by Apple and Microsoft to shake them free, indicating that privacy is not a top concern for most users.
To ensure your security and privacy, you should:
* Ensure Chrome is always updated
* Restart the browser after updates to make sure it sticks
* Consider using a different browser or Chrome’s Incognito Mode for sensitive activities
Additionally, be aware of the limitations of Chrome’s private browsing feature, which tracks between tabs and doesn’t clear its cache until all private tabs are closed.
