Hello readers, today
is the day of judgment. Wait, I will tell you. Actually today I will tell some
black truths of Google chrome. All people find Google chrome to be very fast
and pretty good web browser but today I will reveal its original identity.
Before this incident occurred to me I was also thinking the same for chrome but
now I got it, chrome is a spy in my den.
OK,
let me tell you how I got all these truths about Google chrome. A few days back
surfing through the web, it suddenly occurred to me that whatsoever I was
searching on a specific e-com site, the same my blogger page tried to push on
to me, Astonishing ! I mean how my blogger could might have known what the
heck I am doing on the other pages. It was time for a little exploration to get
to know who the bugger in my den is. And
letting out my private info on the net. This surely a privacy diminution, and
must be condemned on all costs.
Going through my study, I came along various factors as to
what the reason might be. But what struck me as the main culprit, CHROME!
Right, GOOGLE CHROME.
Chrome a muse at the hands of the internet giant Google Inc.
Is constantly being used by the advertisement sovereign to customize its
services for the user.
Not just Google, but other web based company’s wiz Facebook,
yahoo, etc. might be prying over your browsing activities. How do they do it?
Simple they would just send a cookie to your computer, and this program unlike
its name is no sweet, it would bitterly save all that you do online. The reason
for companies in doing so might be business based, or can even be compelled by
the government to do so.
What do we do against Google Chrome
on PC?
Simple, just act on these few steps and you are good to go
against the data seekers.
1. While surfing other web pages log out from your G mail or
yahoo account.
2. Do not link your Google id to chrome.
3. Use your web browsers in incognito/in private mode.
4. We recommend Firefox over chrome, for its more secure.
5. Avoid Google.com. I say what? I know this might seem
impossible to do so, and yes it is impossible, but in order to preserve our
private space we must decrease the use of Google.
Up to this point the privacy breach was just from your PC,
but now as the world goes mobile, your dumb-smart phone makes it a cake walk to
cut through your security.
What do we do against Google Chrome
on PC?
- For a safer telephony android and iPhone users may
download Text Secure and Silent Text. These free apps encrypt the messages
sent to other users using these apps, while they do nothing to those messages
who are sent to cell phones that do not have such an app.
- To encrypt your VOIPs Red Phone and Silent Phone is
recommended over Skype. But in this case too encryption is possible whenever
both the receiver and the caller ends have the given software installed.
Other Security
Facts of Google Chrome:
- There
are some extensions for chrome which are hosted on Google (chrome) web store found
malicious. These extensions present themselves like flash player or other must
extensions. Even though flash player is built in chrome. When we install them malicious
script got downloaded. This downloaded script pipe commands to user social
networking profiles like spam messages, updates and so on.
- Google
ID offers a weak security. Because someone may log in into the developers
account. And there they replace the real extensions with malicious extensions. Because
this the main way to host malicious extensions on chrome web store. According to a
report in Brazil and Portugal, 1000 people are there who have installed
malicious extensions.
- Google
Chrome sends search history to Google servers. You can check what information
has been send by your chrome browser to Google servers using Spy Studio. He do
so make his search effective and to target advertising keywords.
What
do you guys think? Is there accident happened with you related to Google
chrome. Tell
me if you agree with my points.
