Chrome now directly tracks users and generates a list of 'topics' that it shares with advertisers.

Chrome users will now see a pop-up notifying them that the ad platform has been rolled out to them.

All of Google's documentation about this feature feels like it was written in a parallel universe, with Google referring to the browser-based advertising platform as 'a significant step towards a fundamentally more private web.'

The argument here is that Google promises to eventually disable third-party tracking cookies in Chrome, and the new ad platform, despite its limitations, is considered better than the current situation with third-party cookies.
