Wait, somebody really thought that mode does more than just not show you ur browser history afterwards?

What the fuck

When I saw headlines I automatically assumed that this was some Chrome behavior that linked your activity in incognito mode with your real outside-incognito identity.

No. You're right. They're just up in arms because if you log into Google in incognito mode, Google will know who you are in incognito mode.

What a crock
