Google's latest IP protection feature for Chrome is like the superhero cape for your online privacy, swooping in to save the day. It's their way of saying, "Hey, we may have ditched 'don't be evil,' but we're still here for you." The feature promises to shield users from cross-site tracking, the internet's version of someone following you around the grocery store and noting every item in your cart.
Now, Google's grand plan involves routing all your data through their servers with a two-hop proxy. Picture it like a relay race where the first baton pass is to a Google server and the second is to a CDN. It's like a secret agent operation, only instead of spies, it's your data taking on a covert mission. But, hold your horses, if the CDN has a secret alliance with Google or is part of the Alphabet family (which, surprise, owns Google), there might be some data collection shenanigans going on.
In the anti-abuse section of their proposal, Google says you'll need to be logged in for this magic to happen. They claim the proxy won't play detective and connect your traffic to a user account. Well, that's reassuring, coming from the folks who've turned data-selling into an art form. The implementation of this feature is like waiting for the grand finale of a magic show, let's see if the disappearing act actually works.
And now, let's mosey on over to the farm where even cows are caught up in the whirlwind of IoT devices. In the good old days, cows would leisurely graze, blissfully unaware of the digital era. Fast forward to today, farmers are outfitting them with smart collars. However, a team of researchers has found some chinks in the cows' digital armour. They've reverse engineered the wireless protocol, playing a high stakes game of cow themed espionage. If these smart collars were part of the internet at large, it would be a moo-ving argument for beefing up security. Just imagine a cow facing a ransomware attack, udder chaos!
