What does google know about me?

  • Look at your google data summary (how-to) using your stuy.edu address and a gmail address (if you have one).
    • Specific things to focus on
      • Web & App Activity
      • Location History
      • Ad Personalization
      • Activity and Timeline
  • Answer the following questions in a plain text file.
    • Have you looked at your Google data & activity before?
    • Have you changed any of the activity tracking settings before?
    • Did you change any of these settings after looking up your data?
    • Were you surprised by anything you found? If so, what?
    • Do you believe that the amount of data google keeps on you is reasonable?

How unique is my browser?

  • Go to panopticlick and click “TEST ME”
    • When it is done, click on “Show full results for fingerprinting”
    • Take note of the information available.
  • Run the same test in a Private Browser window for the same browser.
  • Do this again in a different browser, once normal and once private.
  • In the same text file as above, answer: Did the tests produce different results? If so, how different were they?
