When you posted that, I thought for a moment that Google might be
stopping trackers which track you from website to website to gather
information about you.

Then I realized that can’t be right. Google’s business model involves
knowing as much as possible about your eyeballs, so Google can make
the most money by selling your eyeballs to the right advertisers.

That sounds like what Google said Chrome was doing in 2008 (that is ten
years ago now).

The real new announcement is that Google is rolling back Meltdown and
Spectre mitigations.
