Google is retiring the Chromecast brand and removing its Chromecast hardware from the market after 11 years, but it is not exiting the streaming device business. Instead, Google is introducing a new product called the Google TV Streamer, designed to compete with high-end streaming boxes like the Apple TV and Roku Ultra.
Google has made a significant change to its Workspace suite, offering all its AI features - previously exclusive to the Gemini Business plan - at no extra cost. Until recently, users needed to pay an additional $20 per user per month to access these tools within Gmail, Docs, Sheets, Meet, and other apps. Now, these features are included for free, signaling Google’s push to stay competitive with Microsoft, OpenAI, and others in the race to deliver the most advanced AI-powered office suite.
Google has agreed to either delete or de-identify billions of records of web browsing data gathered while users were in its private browsing mode, "Incognito", as outlined in a proposed class action settlement filed on Monday.
The settlement proposed in the case of Brown v. Google will additionally require the company to provide more transparency regarding its data collection practices in Incognito mode and impose restrictions on future data gathering. Pending approval from a federal judge in California, the settlement may affect 136 million Google users. The lawsuit, initiated in 2020 by Google account holders, alleged that the company unlawfully monitored their activities through the private browsing feature.
