Google is testing a new security feature in Chrome.
Google is preparing to test the new "IP Protection" option among some users of the Chrome browser. The feature is designed to ensure the privacy and security of users by using proxy servers to hide their IP addresses.
"IP Protection" is part of a larger project known as IP Protection (Gnatcatcher), information about which was published by Google developers on GitHub.
The "IP Protection" feature will help block websites and online services from tracking users by routing third-party traffic from certain domains through Google's proxy servers. The tool makes users ' IP addresses invisible to these domains.
Google representatives stressed: "Chrome presents for testing a proposal to protect users from cross-site tracking via IP addresses. This offer is a privacy proxy that anonymizes users IP addresses to qualify traffic."
The company plans to test and implement the "IP Protection" option gradually. The initial phase, known as Stage 0, will use a single proxy server owned by Google, which will redirect requests only to domains owned by the company itself. This will allow you to test the infrastructure and refine the list of domains that will be redirected. It is important to note that access to the proxy servers in Step 0 will only be granted to clients with IP addresses registered in the United States.
In order to prevent possible abuse of the new option, the authentication server managed by Google will issue access tokens to proxy servers based on quotas for each user.
At the next stage of testing (Stage 1), the number of users accessing the "IP Protection" option will be increased. Google also plans to use a two-hop proxy system to further enhance privacy. The second proxy server will be run by the external CDN, and Google will run the first hop. This ensures that no proxy server can see the client's IP address and destination at the same time.
As the ecosystem evolves, Google will expand the capabilities of the IP Protection option by configuring proxy server settings and including additional domains in the list of redirected traffic.
