Prevent Chrome from silently checking your PC for Windows 11 readiness and keep your hardware details off Google’s radar.

Google Chrome for Android recently received its long awaited bottom bar option, but despite the lengthy wait for it, it's an unfinished mess.

Based on a Chromium commit, Google's web browser is peeking at whether your PC is eligible for Windows 11, and this functionality is supposedly live now.

This latest incident marks the fourth actively exploited zero-day vulnerability fixed in Chrome this year. It follows three other security flaws: CVE-2025-2783 disclosed in March, CVE-2025-4664 patched in May, and CVE-2025-5419 addressed in June. Each of these vulnerabilities were considered critical and patched through emergency updates.
