> using a Google browser

> not wanting to be tracked

here's a hint: ad impression for unknown user is 0.01$ and for logged in user 2$. guess why Google has a browser now...

Do you mean logged into Chrome (e.g. profile sync)? or just logged into Gmail?

does not matter at all.

if you have a logged-off cookie, and the publisher can associate you with a logged-in user at a near point in time, they can charge you as logged in impression.

Does it? Does the request actually provide enough to uniquely identify you?
