Google Sheets: How to Write a Custom Function

How to Use Chrome Incognito Mode
Google has come under much criticism for using your personal data for advertising and tracking. In a gesture addressed toward their many critics, Google has added a private browsing feature to Chrome called incognito mode that can help you opt out of tracking. It works, but only for a very short duration. Web pages can still track you when you use it. However, since it erases cookies when you close the Incognito Mode window, advertisers and data brokers cannot track you long enough to target advertising to you or sell your data to data brokers.
