3 myths about hiding your browser history

Your browser history is for sale.

Myth #1: No one wants your browsing history

Your browsing history is extremely valuable to hackers, marketers, and government agencies, no matter who you are. These people want to track your identity, your location, and every website you visit. Once that information is out in the open, it's out there for good, ready to be shared or sold to the highest bidder. Why risk anyone seeing your activity at all?

Your Google history has not been completely deleted.

Myth #2: Clearing your history will delete all the evidence

Clearing your browser history is just the retroactive version of incognito mode: it only clears the history of the browser on your device. No matter what you do to your browser settings after the fact, your web history has already been recorded by your internet service provider and anyone else who may be listening in on your connection!

You are not very incognito in incognito mode.

Myth #3: Incognito mode makes you invisible

Incognito (private browsing) mode only hides your browser history from other people who might use your same device. Incognito mode does NOT hide your activity from websites you visit, your network administrator (e.g. your employer or school), or your internet service provider (ISP)!
