Google States Plan of a More Private Web Surfing

Elsewhere, Google sketched a plan in trying to make surfing on the web more private.

Meanwhile, this still allows enough targeted advertising to keep publishers and themselves in business.

Google’s proposals include cryptographic tokens. Users can accumulate by showing they are reliable in using artificial intelligence to show people relevant ads.

It is based on minimal information and stuffing personally identifiable data on someone’s device rather than in their browser.

The internet giant indicated it would recommend the changes for discussion before the organizations set standard rules for the Internet.

Google wants the whole web to adopt the new rules, instead of just mounting them on its Chrome browser.

The move demonstrates that Google is proactive. It focuses on how the web must work for it to win out in the future.

The changes would surely progress privacy.

Meanwhile, Google is also delaying due to privacy initiatives made by Firefox and Safari browsers that says are too strict.

The browsers have started blocking cookies. It is a small quantity of code that lodge in people’s browsers and tracks them around the web, serving advertisers to place valuable targeted ads.
