Chrome Unchrome,an identity issue for end user

Google Chrome has came out as a success for Google and it has been termed as fastest growing web browser ever.It is fast,runs script very quickly,consumes very less memory and so many nice things which the blogosphere is talking about Google Chrome.Yes they all are true and i praise Google's effort of developing a web browser like chrome even though they have been supporting Mozilla Firefox for a long time.

But there are some issues regarding its use by Google.Last time it was authorship over any content published on internet using Chrome, and this time it is not very different.When you download Chrome, Google assign a ID number to your browser. Chrome collects informations about your web surfing habits and in combination with the ID number Google gets a nice profile about you.

Some experts says that this is a common approach for Google.Google emphasize on collecting some kind web browsing related habits and history by its various means like web history and other services. According to Google they save it for 2 years after that it is automatically removed from their system and they don't collect any kind of personal information as claimed by rivals and critics.

If you don't want your history to be saved by Google Chrome then you have to remove this ID added by Google in Chrome.Though it is very hard to remove this but we have better option, Unchrome it.Unchrome replaces your unique ID with Null values so that your browser cannot be identified any longer. The functionality of Google Chrome is not influenced by this. You only need to apply UnChrome once.

I hope this is a better option as per todays situation but it would be more better if Google gives you a choice if you want to get a ID or not.That would be a faithfull step towards its user.

Your article are property of Google if published by using Google Chrome

Yes it is true.If you published any article on internet either on your blog or any where else using Google's new web browser Google Chrome, then your article is also the property of Google according to Chromes EULA i.e. end-user license agreements.It states that posting anything via Google Chrome gives Google the right to your content.Here is the Google's word.

11. Content license from you

11.1 You retain copyright and any other rights you already hold in Content which you submit, post or display on or through, the Services. By submitting, posting or displaying the content you give Google a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, and non-exclusive license to reproduce, adapt, modify, translate, publish, publicly perform, publicly display and distribute any Content which you submit, post or display on or through, the Services. This license is for the sole purpose of enabling Google to display, distribute and promote the Services and may be revoked for certain Services as defined in the Additional Terms of those Services.

11.2 You agree that this license includes a right for Google to make such Content available to other companies, organizations or individuals with whom Google has relationships for the provision of syndicated services, and to use such Content in connection with the provision of those services.

You agree that this license shall permit Google to take these actions.

11.4 You confirm and warrant to Google that you have all the rights, power and authority necessary to grant the above license.

It does not seems appropriate and it also gives a chance to speak to all the person who blames Google for collecting private information via its each method possible like search, mail,blog, adsense,adwords,analytics almost each service of Google is blamed for this kind of activity and now this.This condition won't last long as people will definitely raise their voice against this so till then avoid Google chrome for publishing content on web.

UPDATE:Google has fliped back on this sensitive issue.Now they say

11. Content license from you

11.1 You retain copyright and any other rights you already hold in Content which you submit, post or display on or through, the Services.

So this is a good news but this leaves a patch on Google's intentions

Probably JaysTech is penalised by Google

Have a look at this image.This is my Google analytics stats,you can clearly visualize the drop in the amount of readers or visits from Google to my site.This drop is very drastic and now my adsense income is also effected by this drop.

When i searched internet on this issue then i found it is usual for Google to penalize or ban sites which did not follow Google's guideline by selling text links ads, or writing reviews without nofollow tags, black seo etc.( Read full details).Don't get confused over banned and penalized, ‘penalized’ means that the site exists in Google but ranks considerably lower while ‘ban’ refers to a situation where the site get removed from Google and doesn’t appear in search pages anymore.

For clarification purpose i checked my site site in Google ,it was indexed there but it was ranked lower than usual that's why this was termed as a penalty.But i was still not clear about this because i never used link exchange programs,paid links or black seo,though i wrote some paid reviews but i used nofollows as advised by mat cutts from Google.So how can Google penalize JaysTech.It was hard to believe but results was showing this .

But when i checked out my Google webmasters tool, then i found a different story,see this image.

Last time when Google tried to index my blog then this so called Url not found error occurred and this Url not found error kept Google away from indexing this blog in Googles search results and this lowered traffic from Google to jaystech.

So now i think my blog is not penalized by Google and this is that error that lowered my traffic and caused a state of Penalized by Google.Even though i have filed an official request for reconsideration to Google that i didn't do any thing wrong or violated any of your policies but even if you think this is the case with my blog then inform me.

Hoping for a change now but if you know anything about this or if have faced this issue before then let me know so that traffic for this blog can be restored to normal.
