There's a big difference between a giant corporation (that wants you to continue using its products) seeing every site you've visited, and your fucking employer, source of not being homeless and starving to death.
The only way those large corporations can use that ability, is when your employer pays for it.
Otherwise it wouldn't happen.
Since if it did happen, they would get sued by every company that uses their software.
