Chrome 69 Automatically Signs Into Google Accounts

Chrome is the most popular browser on Earth, but many worry about the extent that Google uses it to track users and promote their own services. It seems Google took things one step further, automatically signing you into your Google account on the browser when signing into any Google service online. Tracking concerns aside, this can lead to a number of complications, such as cookies and browsing data diffusing between users who share the same computer. Thanks to Teenk9 for the tip. For all we know, the new approach has privacy implications even if sync is off. The Chrome developers claim that with "sync" off, a Chrome has no privacy implications. This might be true. But when pressed on the actual details, nobody seems quite sure. For example, if I have my browser logged out, then I log in and turn on "sync", does all my past (logged-out) data get pushed to Google? What happens if I'm forced to be logged in, and then subsequently turn on "sync"? Nobody can quite tell me if the data uploaded in these conditions is the same. These differences could really matter.
