Does Google track everything you do? YES!
Will Google ban your PBN if you access it through Chrome? NO, it's just a stupid theory made up from webmasters who build shit PBN-s, leave footprints all over the place or get an algorithmic penalty and then they blame Chrome for it.
My evidence is both "theoretical" and practical from experience. I've been managing networks since 2012-2013 and nothing happened so far - sure, I've had de-indexed blogs, but not because of Chrome like people say, otherwise my entire network would have been tanked.
However, I realize that just 1 example doesn't really prove the point, so let's drill down to the theoretical part... before I make my point though, I would really like to know what does
@bartosimpsonio think in terms of
how Chrome is actually getting and using the data to identify PBN-s? What's the process? It's so simple to say Google will track you and then it will link you to all of the blogs you own - but to do it algorithmically would be an almost impossible task, because there is SERIOUS room for error. It's not about computing power as that is of no shortage to Google, it's about accuracy. What's the point in investing in an algorithm that identifies half of the things right and the other half wrong?
Not to mention the fact Google does NOT need to spy on you to find your blogs, because 99% of people will leave a footprint somewhere to identify them. So, in conclusion, IMO, use whatever browser you want as it doesn't matter, what matters is that you eliminate footprints in your network!
