There are numerous reasons to make sure that your web browser does
not leak information to the Internet or the browser maker if that is not
required for functionality that you use. Preferences that handle
features such as third party cookies or prefeteching are usually not
found in a single location where they can be easily managed.
When it comes to privacy in Google Chrome, preferences can be found on the browser’s settings page and on the experimental chrome://flags page.
The Google Chrome extension Privacy Manager tries to resolve these issues by providing one-click access to these privacy settings. It adds an icon to the browser’s address bar on install that displays all privacy management options that it makes available in the browser.
All privacy related settings can be turned on or off with a single click of the mouse button:
Privacy Manager’s second big feature is the option to clean data on start of the browser. This works similar to the browser’s own clear browsing data feature, but with additional data locations to select. This includes among other Web SQL and File systems.
The big question however is this: should you install and use the extension to manage the privacy settings, or should you change the settings manually instead? Manual is certainly the better option if you know your way around in the browser. The extension on the other hand makes sense if you are a new user or just want to make sure you configure all major privacy related settings correctly. (via Lifehacker).

众所周知，Google Chrome的隐私设置一向是比较隐蔽的，这是必须的，可以在扳手菜单–设置–显示高级设置里面看到，还可在地址栏输入chrome://flags/进入隐私设置。
如果你想修改配置隐私设置里面的东西，觉得这两种方式进入又比较繁琐，那这个扩展Privacy Manager 可以帮到你，它可以帮你一键进入隐私设置，非常方便快捷，安装此扩展后，会显示在地址栏右边，鼠标轻轻点击一下图标，所有的设置全部呈现在眼前，是开启还是关闭，一目了然。
每个设置后面都有详细的描述了开启功能之后的作用。如果不清楚某些设置的作用，移动鼠标指向后面的提示图标，即可显示详细描述，只需一点即可方便管理。
这个扩展最大的特点就是能够很清晰的向用户显示隐私设置里的配置，即使你是新手，你不知道该修改些什么，但很清楚的知道哪些功能开启，哪些功能关闭，有哪些体验变化，在需要修改的时候又方便快捷；对于追求极度简化和快捷操作的老鸟们更不用说了，这正是你们所需要的。
