A dormant, stationary Android phone (with the Chrome browser active in the background) communicated location information to Google 340 times during a 24-hour period, or at an average of 14 data communications per hour. In fact, location information constituted 35 percent of all the data samples sent to Google.
For comparisonâ(TM)s sake, a similar experiment found that on an iOS device with Safari but not Chrome, Google could not collect any appreciable data unless a user was interacting with the device. Moreover, an idle Android phone running the Chrome browser sends back to Google nearly fifty times as many data requests per hour as an idle iOS phone running Safari.
An idle Android device communicates with Google nearly 10 times more frequently as an Apple device communicates with Apple servers. These results highlighted the fact that Android and Chrome platforms are critical vehicles for Googleâ(TM)s data collection. Again, these experiments were done on stationary phones with no user interactions. If you actually use your phone the information collection increases with Google.
Google has the ability to associate anonymous data collected through passive means with the personal information of the user. Google makes this association largely through advertising technologies, many of which Google controls. Advertising identifiersâ"which are purportedly âoeuser anonymousâ and collect activity data on apps and third-party webpage visitsâ"can get associated with a userâ(TM)s real Google identity through passing of device-level identification information to Google servers by an Android device.
Likewise, the DoubleClick cookie IDâ"which tracks a userâ(TM)s activity on the third-party webpagesâ"is another purportedly âoeuser anonymousâ identifier that Google can associate to a userâ(TM)s Google account. It works when a user accesses a Google application in the same browser in which a third-party webpage was accessed previously.
A major part of Googleâ(TM)s data collection occurs while a user is not directly engaged with any of its products. The magnitude of such collection is significant, especially on Android mobile devices, arguably the most popular personal accessory now carried 24/7 by more than 2 billion people.
This is what you get for using a device whose operating system is made by the worldâ(TM)s largest ad network.

So, no. Incognito mode can easily be detected and requests targeted similarly to those from your other windows. Even requests from other devices on the same LAN can be tied to you with a high degree of acuracy. Itâ(TM)s very difficult to make a request to Google that isnâ(TM)t correlated with past requests in some way.
I agree with your implication, but to be fair, nothing about Google's search algorithms are simple. Because they keep the algorithm hidden we can't argue for sure that Trump doesn't have a point. I don't think he does, but it would be nice to be able to prove it.
I'm on your side, but to be fair, no one outside of Google really understands how their algorithms work. There could actually be a "Google execs like this" input. Probably not, but we can't really know for sure.
I say this not to argue against your point but to point out that no one really has all the answers here. We're all debating on observations.
...when it was just a way for Zuck to get off on yearbook photos. Can we go back to breastfeeding pix, pirating boxes and Putin pupeteering stupid Americans?
Pai's overlord Verizon needs this for 5G cell rollouts so this makes sense. I'm sure he'll find a way to prevent Google and newcomers from benefitting.
I agree with your sentiment - it's true that kids are knowledge sponges. The problem is they have little self-control. It's hard enough for adults to resist checking their phone a hundred times a day. Kids just can't do it, and that has a direct impact on whatever else they're supposed to be doing.
You mean anyone who *doesn't* do so, but sure. My point is that China is requiring this of all airlines regardless of nationality so why the focus on the US? Omitting Taiwan's response is typical US myopia.

I love news about what companies aren’t doing.
It seems to me that he never left; he's doing two jobs at once.
The article points out that it’s a downgrade. My guess is it’s a cost savings to make one type of battery instead of two.
New battery, cameras, mainboard, SoC, modem, antennae, eSIM, haptics, speakers... yep, not many changes at all!
Personally I just picked up a used X to save a bunch of money, but calling the XS mostly the same is disingenuous at best.
Wonâ(TM)t someone please think of the poor telecom companies?
Pai sure does.
When I get a new job I leave the old one behind.
As opposed to the fount of relevant information you clearly are. Thanks so much for your input.
As it turns out, the number of times I posted these research conclusions isn't the important part.
Iâ(TM)ll take a bit less battery life over this:

Huawei devices having higher capacity batteries does not make a boast about iPhone users needing external batteries valid.

Did you do it logged out, and from an IP no one has ever used with Google before?

Due to the unidirectional nature of time.
They were flying lower than 30m of course ;)
Hey Ancient Aliens was great! Some the most my wife and I had laughed in a long time!

Their phones need to stay home.
Exactly. If your kid is doing homework in front of the TV and not getting much done, what do you do? You turn off the TV.
Removing distractions and devices which are, at best, not needed for school is a great way to help students focus on what they're there to do.
There are not enough mod points in the world for this post :D
Sorry I thought you meant does so as in does make such a law. My bad.
