    Wait... people actually think that incognito means that they don't record your searches??

    I thought everybody knew that all incognito does is preventing your searches from showing up in your search history.

    Did anyone actually think that these big tech companies would willingly give you an option to keep your searches private from them?

    Hello????

    Always assume that everything you do online is being recorded and seen by someone. Unless you're a master computer wiz or whatever the fuck they call it these days, ALWAYS ASSUME YOUR ACTIVITY ONLINE IS PUBLIC.

      People really need to learn about VPNs and advertising ID numbers and also how your ISP is selling your activity

          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.

                So this is why the weird shite I look up in incognito comes up when I search something without incognito mode.

                    People mistaking incognito mode for a VPN or Tor.

                    Cmon if you use tor to search about cookie recipes then you are ill, Schizo

                    Healthy people use tor to hire hitman on their boss after boss fired them, or a hacker to doxx the jerk that downvoted them

                        This is the consequence of wrapping everything in glossy plastics and dumbed down UI for decades. People don't want to learn, and even if they do it's all hidden away behind blobs and bloats.

                          Apparently we consume porn in vastly different ways.

                            I don’t care or think they didn’t track that, they don’t ruin my algorithm with those searches which is all I really care about.

                            I basically just use it to look up whatever new crazy person my whack job mother was sending me some antivax propaganda from to confirm they’re the type of quack I assume them to be.

                              I’m just gently teasing you because I was 29 years old when Chrome came out. My parents would never have even thought to ask someone to install something like that when the internet first came out.
