Google is the largest search engine on the internet. Because of its size it can store billions data from search queries, constantly enriching its Big Data.
Most of you who deal with technology, know the importance of collection data by companies like Google, and how much information can be retrieved with the proper management and processing of Big Data.
However, this publication will not deal with managing Big Data companies but will give you a minimal sample of data quality.
Θα εξετάσουμε ένα link από τη μηχανή αναζήτησης της Google, για να δούμε ποιες προσωπικές μας πληροφορίες ταξιδεύουν προς τους servers της companys.
The search queries were two in a row (star wars x 2) and one at a later time (iguru.gr) in the Web search engine and in the images.
But let's see caution the following link:
https://www.google.gr/search?q=star+wars&oq=star+wars&aqs=chrome.0.69i59j69i60j69i61j69i60j69i64.2159j0j9&sourceid=chrome&es_sm=93&ie=UTF-8#safe=off&q=iguru.gr
By reading only the data people can read, we notice that in our search we first gave Google three questions. The encoded (.0.69i59j69i60j69i61j69i60j69i64.2159j0j9) can only be read by Google and so we can not know what they are.
But we also gave it the browser we used (sourceid = chrome).
We gave it the character encoding we use on our system (UTF-8).
The good we left for the end. The company recognizes whether Safe Search is on or off and naturally collects the information.
Perhaps the above information seems to you to be insignificant, but if you consider them cumulatively according to the largest online service audience, you will understand the size.
Of course, we did not mention the ones shown in the above link, but the company collects them. THE address IP που χρησιμοποιείτε, το λειτουργικό σύστημα που τρέχει ο υπολογιστής σας, το ιστορικό αναζήτησης και επισκέψεων του browser σας και πολλά πολλά άλλα που είναι εγγεγραμμένα στα cookies.
