Google, which recently discontinued its free Dark Web Monitoring service, has returned with good news. Previously, this security service was offered as part of the paid Google One subscription package. However, it will soon be available to all users at no cost. Here are the details…
Google Dark Web Monitoring: An Invaluable Security Tool
Google is restructuring and expanding its personal information security services. Up until now, the Dark Web Monitoring service was available only to Google One subscribers. Soon, it will be accessible to all Google account holders.
This service scans the dark web for personal information such as email addresses, home addresses, social security numbers, phone numbers, and birth dates. If any information is found, the user receives a notification with recommendations on what to do next. This ensures that users are aware if any of their information has been leaked online.
Google's new smart watch, Google Pixel Watch 3, could not keep its features secret. Here are the details of the first Pixel Watch model to come in two sizes.
Google plans to integrate this feature into the “Results About You” section, making it accessible to a wider user base. This change will occur at the end of July, and the dark web monitoring feature will no longer require a Google One membership. Thus, in the new era, all Google users will benefit from this important service against data theft.
Despite reducing its paid services, Google’s commitment to user security is clear and likely to please users. Feel free to share your thoughts on this topic in the comments section.
