As justinclift points out elsewhere in this discussion, the article may have misreported that:

> We are considering using 2 hops for improved privacy. A second proxy would be run by an external CDN, while Google runs the first hop. This ensures that neither proxy can see both the client IP address and the destination.

If they choose to go ahead with the second hop it would be the same as Apple’s approach. But it sounds like this has not been committed to yet.

This is what I was unclear on - I couldn't tell if this was one-hop (and so tremendously invasive "privacy"), or two hops through an independent 3rd party (and so actually a privacy feature).
