Google will now auto-delete some user data

Alphabet Inc's Google said it will let users set up their profiles to automatically delete location and web-browsing data, giving people a middle ground to the internet giant’s always-on or always-off data hoovering mechanisms.

the internet is forever, nothing saved on the internet ever gets deleted permanently.

"the company relies on user data to target adds"
This isn't really correct anymore, they found that a large majority of the time targeting outside of the keyword search of the user is not worth it as previous searches and not much of an indicator.

There was an article about it somewhere.

Not saying Google doesn't target anything, just that it plays a lot less of a role than it used to.
