Google announced in an update on Tuesday<\/a> that its dark web monitoring service, also known as \u201cdark web report,\u201d will be made available to all Google users in 46 countries including the US and UK at the end of the month, according to Fast Company<\/em><\/a>. <\/em>The feature was previously only available to users with a Google One membership.<\/p>\n The dark web report will be located in the \u201cResults about you\u201d page when you visit myactivity.google.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n Google\u2019s \u201cdark web report\u201d feature will scan the seedy underbelly of algorithms that ended up on the wrong side of the digital tracks to determine if your personal information has been leaked. This includes information such as your name, address, phone numbers and email accounts.<\/p>\n It\u2019s a handy feature to have especially if you\u2019re one of the millions of people who\u2019ve fallen victim to hacking, info leaks or identity theft. Just a few months ago, 7.6 million AT&T customers<\/a> had their information leaked to the dark web forcing the telecom giant to reset all of its affected users\u2019 passcodes.<\/p>\n Other services like Proton Mail<\/a> and LastPass<\/a> already have features that monitor the dark web for user information and leaked passwords and alert them if they find anything.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
