Okay, your memory is encrypted, still can steal your private key from the cpu cache.
Just naming, nothing special.
Google and Confidential are two words that don't go together in this timeline.
Do you think there's a parallel universe where they are noble guardians of individual privacy?
Me neither.
😒
"Google" and "confidential" don't ever belong together, unless it is talking about the nasty ways they use the data collected about you, which is a "business secret" you're not allowed to know.
haha all the google hate, i'm actually asking about the cpu, maybe it is not new
Many providers use AMD CPUs with memory guard feature.
If you haven't done anything dodgy, you don't have anything to worry about, right?
The rest, I mean, I couldn't care less. If I get better ads for the underwear brand I like, or the ball shavers, I call it a win win. If anything, adverts help me, and then I do the comparisons.
Better idea - let's build a China wall around ourselves.

To all the geek Karens, seriously, no one cares about the midget porn, or whatever pathetic life secret you have so much to worry about.
If it's such a big concern, file a patent.
And before you all demand to see the manager, no, I am not talking about personal credentials, just behaviour and categorising.
Looks like they found a confidential way to sell your data.
