Chrome 152 again spares google.com from 'delete on close'
Developer Jeff Johnson reproduced on two Macs running Chrome 152.0.7977.83 that with 'delete site data on close' enabled, google.com keeps its cookies, local storage and session storage. A Hacker News user reproduced it in open-source Chromium 152.0.7977.75 on Debian. Google called the same behavior a bug and fixed it in Chrome 86 back in 2020.
