Browsing: Chromebook Privacy

Google has some new ChromeOS privacy controls coming to Chromebooks. Essentially, you’ll have a software kill switch for your mic and webcam.

A new ChromeOS feature will bring Chromebook privacy indicators to the system level when using your microphone or camera.

There’s a new internal ChromeOS URL that displays a diagnostic tool to test the Chromebook privacy feature that detects snooping behind you.
