    I’m aware.

    It was so obscenely frivolous every lawyer involved should be in prison for fraud. Google never at any point implied that incognito did anything to impact what websites you connected to knew or recorded.

      It literally list the entities that can see your activity. Websites you visit, your employer/school, your isp. It conviniently leaves out the browser from this list. Its very misleading.

        Because your browser isn’t doing tracking. That’s what you’re turning off.

        The absurd lawsuit was because Google still did the same things server side when you were in incognito mode.
