|
|
SB has taken many steps to preserve privacy. If required, a full url is never sent
|
|
to Google, only a part-hash of the prefix, hidden with noise of other real part-hashes.
|
|
Firefox takes measures such as stripping out identifying parameters and since SBv4 (FF57+)
|
|
doesn't even use cookies. (#Turn on browser.safebrowsing.debug to monitor this activity)
