Chrome team members have said that preventing modern web browsers from leaking enough entropy to uniquely identify users across sessions (fingerprinting) is impractical with all of the features that the modern web provides.

This sentiment has probably lead to some at Google to think that it is justifiable impose pervasive tracking and surveillance technologies as a condition for using Google services.

Look at the new ReCAPTCHA v3 to see how fingerprinting is trending at Google.
