Google was already in the middle of a class-action lawsuit regarding the incognito mode, where they were accused of tracking user activity. And, they agreed to settle the lawsuit.
To conclude that and move on, they will have to make the necessary changes to prevent another lawsuit against them.
TL;DR: Chrome doesn’t stop trackers, so they’re gonna add a warning that incognito doesn’t stop trackers.
Does Firefox private browsing or Edge’s…whatever they call it stop trackers? If not are they being sued too?
No, but they’ve included the warnings already, so they won’t get sued.
The edge message definitely isn’t clear. The Firefox one is better though
Chrome claimed “Now you can browse privately”, which none of these do. Also, your screenshot for Edge is outdated.
I couldn’t find a newer screenshot, I assume its just chromium wording now?
