[Online Tip] Stop Googlefrom Tracking YourData on ChromeBrowser

Google might have several online properties but
the single most important one it has is obviously
its search engine. Almost everyone types in
keywords to search for stuff they need online. So
how does Google make money? They simply
show relevant text ads, which might interest you
while searching. Once you click on their text ad,
Google makes money. This sort of simple
revenue model has created a multi-billion dollar
industry.
How does Google knows
which advertisement to
show you?
That is quite simple, all it does is track your
search patterns thanks to your browser. This
allows Google to show newer and more relevant
ads to you. This of course increases the chances
of people clicking on the ads which subsequently
makes Google billions.
If you do not want personalization of ads on your
browser, use Keep My Opt Outs Chrome
extension, which does not allow collecting data
from your browser.
Features of Keep my Opt
Outs Extension
Many times we get prompted for Chrome
permission warnings. The extension still does not
allow tracking any of our records.
This is done by now allowing cookies to be
stored from websites. This conforms to web
privacy standards.
We can do this all by tweaking Chrome
preferences for cookies or even checking http://
www.google.com/ads/preferences for making
sure we do not get personalized ads.
Are you someone who does not mind Google
tracking your information for showing
preferences? Do drop in your comments.
