Disable it just mean that YOU won't be able to read it. Google still collect this data so far.


> Google still collect this data so far.

Citation please. Or at least you meant to say Google still _anonymously_ collects this data?


There's nothing anonymous about google's collection of data.

Here it just means it won't be tied to your google account but to whatever kind of profile google uses to track searches you make.


So assuming your comment is based on a fact (and I still don't see any citation), do you mean to say the "whatever kind of profile" google uses can still be tied to your google account? If not, then it's _anonymous_ as far as I am concerned.
