Google has updated its browser to Chrome 23 and released it for Windows, Mac, Linux, and Chrome frameworks. New Features of Chrome 23 include GPU video decoding acceleration, more convenient website permission management control, and support for DNT protocol.
The most important feature of this major version upgrade is the support for the Do Not TrackDNT protocol. As one of the solutions to the network privacy problem, the DNT protocol allows netizens to control their privacy information being tracked, websites that comply with this rule will not track users' personal information for more precise online advertising.
Microsoft first announced that it supported the protocol in IE9 and set it to the default enabling status in IE10. Later, Firefox, Apple's Safari, and Opera developed by Mozilla began to support the Protocol. Now Chrome has finally begun to support the DNT protocol, which seems to mean that mainstream browser vendors have reached a consensus on user privacy.
By enabling DNT, users can tell online advertising companies not to track their whereabouts or publish targeted advertisements. This can effectively protect user privacy, but it will also harm the interests of advertisers. The free and free Internet is based on online advertising. Therefore, Chrome, which has the largest market share, has begun to support DNT, which may have an important impact on the Internet profit model and future development.
