Google quietly updates Chrome’s incognito warning in wake of tracking lawsuit

[...]

Here’s the updated text (emphasis added):

“Others who use this device won’t see your activity, so you can browse more privately. This won’t change how data is collected by websites you visit and the services they use, including Google. Downloads, bookmarks and reading list items will be saved.

The text in that article is different from your screenshot, I don't know what's up with that. Perhaps it's regional.
