    They might have changed the wording, but it’s been insanely clear for many years, and it never at any point implied it changed anything about what websites did.

      You and I may have known, but

      it’s been insanely clear for many years

      If it had been clear it wouldn’t have become an issue.

        It isn’t an issue. The exact wording might have changed, but the content has been identical for years and years. It included “sites and others who can see your traffic can do whatever the hell they want” the whole time, in entirely unambiguous idiot proof language.

        This is an imaginary horseshit lawsuit. It was not possible to read the very obvious text and be misled about what incognito mode did or didn’t do at any point, and it was automatically displayed in every tab. There was never at any point any possible room for confusion.
