DumbestAiOverviews

I recently began "manually" deleting some old browser activity, you know, the usual, history, searches, etc, but then I got to thinking that this is kinda redunctant since I had already had the feature "auto-delete" turned on. I then started to "overthink" this feature's fumction, as I do with almost , well no, actually, EVERYTHING I do on a computer. I noticed the " send a Do Not Track request" feature in my browser's settings on Chrome. It always boggled the mind, mine,anyway, that this "Do Not Track" when feature, when applied is supposed to do just as it states, request a site NOT TO TRACK me, however I still felt it a little dumb to assume that it would have much affect on Google itself, so I decided to investigate this apparent "oxy moronic" delima in a basic search question, as I framed it in more of a statement which read like this TYPED: [ "The Do Not Track" setting on my Chrome browser setting does not work for Google] STOP.
( so "why " {{{would have been an actual question continuing...}}} is it relavent to have if you want to stop Google from Tracking everything from your Activity without losing passwords to accounts or even use it for anything if it's just ignored anyway? Lol hold on....

[Pressed ENTER:] I got one of the dumbest Ai Overview "returns as an answer" which simply read:

This is correct; while you can technically enable a "Do Not Track" setting in your Google Chrome browser, it's important to understand that most websites, including Google's own services, do not activiely respond to Do Not Track requests, meaning it likely won't significantly impact how your data is collected and used across the web.

OMG, then I was right, this Non Feature setting is ridiculous, Me, Tempted, but not going forward with my next search that would be: Why is Ai overview necessary and is it moderated by Captain Obvious?
