About Google Web Accelerator?

Google Web Accelerator is a previous web acceleration tool developed by Google that utilized client software installed on the user's computer and data caching on Google's servers to enhance webpage load times through data compression, content prefetching, and shared cached data among users. It directed non-secure page requests to Google for optimization and logging, without affecting secure web pages (HTTPS). However, concerns arose over the potential for personal information to be embedded in these page requests.
