Huge lawsuit against Google: Track users in incognito mode Israel today

US $ 5 billion class action lawsuit filed against tech giant • "Company has not informed users it is collecting data in private browsing mode"

Most of us have a laid back attitude when it comes to painting a picture about incognito in order to keep track of our web browsing experience, or at least to keep track of it.

A California court has given the green light to a class action lawsuit filed against Google last June.

Claim: Collects information about users - even in private browsing mode.

According to the publication, the prosecution is seeking $ 5 billion in damages for violating federal laws.

"Google has not informed users that it is collecting data while the user is in incognito mode," wrote Judge Lucy Koo, who denied the company's request to dismiss the lawsuit outright. 

Plaintiffs allege that Google misleads users who choose to browse in "incognito" mode, contrary to promises, and continues to collect information about their usage habits.

They also said they passed some of the information to publishers and tracked their search history.

Google spokesman Jose Castaneda told The Verge that the company disagrees with the lawsuit, and that it will vigorously defend itself. "
