A few weeks ago Google declared his intention to Cross all the data they have about you. Everyone. To date, you historial search was totally segregated from the rest of the company's products, such as YouTube, Gmail, Google Docs, etc. As of March 1, 2012, this barrier will fall. |
En slash dot they alert us that us It is the last day on which we can use the functionality offered by the Google search engine to erase our search history and disable the option to save said history.
La Electronic Frontier Foundation has posted some simple instructions on how to do it.
They are really easy to follow. Here's the Spanish version:
- Login with your Google account in any of their services.
- Visit this address: https://www.google.com/history.
- Click on "Clear all web history".
Take five minutes of your time and do it right now. Worth it.
Well, in my case there is no option to delete the history…. :(

Very good, it worked perfect for me
Exactly that happens to me, or is it that we can no longer delete it?
I don't really remember it, but then I already have it disabled?
I was able to do it, thanks for the info!
What I don't understand is why "TODAY is the last day." The SlashDot post announcing that was posted last Wednesday!
I have a question: I access the address of point 2 and I get, apart from a text that I am not going to reproduce (but that refers to obtaining personalized searches and recommendations based on your preferences), two buttons: One that says «No Thank you ”and a second blue button that says“ Activate web history ”. Does this mean that I haven't had Google log searches, or that I turned it off myself at some point that I can't remember now? In that case I don't have to do anything else, right?
Thanks for the input. A greeting.
I have all my history registered and I have to delete it
They probably disabled it at another time and now they don't remember it.
I had already done it a while ago so that it does not change the search results. 😀
I really don't remember disabling it, lately I'm using more duckduckgo.
apart it bothers me that this advertising install google chrome.
I did not know that that page of my history existed, now that I deactivate the history option, my searches in google will no longer be stored? I will definitely use more duckduckgo though. thanks for the info!!
Thank you. I did it yesterday.
If your History does not appear and the possibility of deleting it, it means that you have already done it.
Cheers! Paul.
I disabled that option a long time ago, so I have no history.
I am also using the search engine http://duckduckgo.com/ that does not spy on you.

Why delete the history? so that they advertise things that don't interest me? As if deleting the history did not save a copy?
The trouble with referring to "today" is that you don't know what "today" is about. On many websites I miss the publication date of an article, it really is a bummer. I don't think there is a closing date for each topic here either, or I went blind.
So that it does not change with respect to what? even geographic location can cause search results to vary.
So they don't change depending on my history. Enough breaks my balls that I add results from people I know. It's not perfect, but at least it's something.
What is not normal is that as soon as you access Google, it will put 95 cookies, 45 gmail, etc ... and these are 3 years old ...
