Incognito mode was always just to hide your local browser history. Think Google would NOT track you?
Do you have Google maps? They know where you are at all times.

Google maps?ANY UNMODIFIED GOOGLE CODE OR ANDROID PHONE, TABLET OR CHROMEBOOK IN THE HISTORY OF FOREVER?Then they know where you are at all times. I bet the Pixel users get gold stars. Oneplus have little pluses and custom rom users have

It's as far as I remember literally always said it's basically just turning off local history, and not for true privacy. The wording has changed over the years and frankly only become more explicated and clear about that fact.
This is a rare case of google NOT being the problem here. People are misusing a tool that has always been honest about itself.
Google wasn't really explicit about that until the lawsuit.

That's called victim blaming.
But yeah. I really hope people stop using Google products. Google is evil.

Be an informed consumer or a sorry one. It's anyone's choice.
or not, buy another Mypillow or Nintendo product since you're all gluttons for punishment.

Brave is also Chromium.
Correct. But it is not the same.
-
Firefox is also a web browser.
Oh sorry, I thought we were making meaningless comparisons.

Naming it incognito was a mistake. It was always clear to me all incognito is, is a non persistent container to keep your browsing data separate from your regular browsing data. All its hiding is your porn browsing habits from your mom. But of course, the name implies much more.

Google, who could this possibly be???

I really don't have the time, or the interest, to explain it to you; but all of the things you linked are either hyperbole, misinformation, or straight up fabrications; a very small amount of digging will show you why. But hey, I don't work for Brave or care if anyone uses it or not. At the end of the day, use whatever browser you're comfortable with.

Am I the only one who only used incognito by accident when intending to select "open in new tab" from the context menu?
It's great for testing a site when you're not sure whether the issue is because you're logged in or there's some cached data.

You clearly have no knowledge on how browser instances work. Just because Brave has built-in stuff like ad blockers doesn't mean the Chromium platform isn't Google anymore and Google has no more access to the data. No matter the extra features it has. Using Chromium means sharing data with Google.
Why would using Firefox share more data with Google than a Chromium browser, when Firefox is the only alternative to Chromium, made by a different company and not at all affiliated with Google?
Using Chromium means sharing data with Google.
??? You retarded or something?

That's simply not true. People can't be expected to know what's going on under the hood of services designed specifically to simplify things for non-technical users and conceal what's under the hood.
Then don't allow them to use those services without a license. It's cars or chemicals all over again.

This is more about knowing Google is an advertising company and makes money from selling your data. Than it is knowing how the application works and what it does under the covers.

Yes. That is in fact what I'm saying. Brave has built in blockers for ads, trackers, and cookies. It has a built-in VPN. It has a built-in Tor browser. It's default search engine is DDG instead of Google. Considering Firefox defaults to Google for searches, you're likely giving more data to Google through Firefox than you would using Brave.
This is gonna be awesome

I don’t believe for a second that they are actually going to delete any data they stole from users.

Then don't serve a check your ass can't cash

Then a very smalll amount would disprove me. Until then, my point of not installing this poison still stands. Enjoy your willful ignorance. Telling me off took more effort than finding your argument lmao.
