Google One is one of the best solutions for anyone who wants a cloud storage offering. Recently, the company introduced a new change that allowed all subscribers to use Pixel's Magic Eraser regardless of the device or platform they are on, and today, the company has introduced a host of new features to the service.
VPN by Google One is now available to all subscribers, along with a new dark web monitoring tool coming soon to users in the U.S.
Google has announced several improvements to Google One. For starters, VPN by Google One will now be available to all subscribers - previously, it was only available to those using the premium plans. Google has said that in the coming weeks, everyone who is subscribed to the basic plan and is from the supported countries will be able to use the VPN on all supported platforms.
VPN by Google One aside, another neat feature of the latest update is dark web monitoring. This feature works by allowing users to add personal information such as their name, address, email, phone number, Social Security numbers, and more. The feature would then search the dark web to find any matches to the information you put in the monitoring profile. If it manages to find something, Google will then inform you on how to protect your data.
The good news about the new dark web monitoring tool is that it will show you the information that matches your profile and all the relevant information found in data breaches. The feature will be rolling out to all the members of Google One currently in the U.S. over the next few weeks, and it will be available on all plans. For users who are worried about their privacy, Google has mentioned that the company's privacy policy will be applied to the monitoring profiles, and users will have the option to delete their info or stop the monitoring whenever they want.
Last but not least, Google One will now be available with expanded cloud storage, along with all the goodness that you can enjoy from this service, including the recently announced Magic Eraser. You can get all the information about the latest changes here.
There is no denying that Google One is gaining traction, and with the new features, the company is sure to attract many more users than before. I am really glad that the VPN feature is now available to everyone, and dark web monitoring also looks like an excellent tool when it comes to providing users with peace of mind. Let us know what you think about the latest update.
