Does anyone noticed https://www.google.ae/?gws_rd=cr in google.com url? I recently noticed that each time i try to access google in chrome, it automatically appends some parameter. It was so weird to me at first and i thought it some kind of spam.
So What Is gws_rd=cr in Google.com URL?
gws = google web server
rd = redirect
cr = country
Google is constantly trying to seek out better ways to strengthen its tracking, Google doesn’t tell why the redirection URL was introduced.
-If you are on Google Chrome browser,
-Access your browser setting by clicking on the Options icon located at the top right corner of your browser. Now you can choose Settings in the dropdown options. When you are on Settings page, go straight to Appearances and select Change next to the previously set Search Engine URL
-Having selected Change, then you can now add ncr after the forward slash at the back of URL. It will then look like: http://www.google.com/ncr
You can now click OK
