There are 30-second snippets of what… Source link

The feature has been available in the iOS version of Chrome for a while now, but now it’s becoming more widely available on Android (read: won’t require activating via a flag). The Lock Incognito tabs when you… Source link

Washington CNN  —  For the better part of 15 years, Google has seemed like an unstoppable force, powered by the strength of its online search engine and digital advertising business.
