I can't find anything but silence regarding this anywhere, so I wanted to reach out for help here. Urls, especially those generated when using Google Search, have certain operators and parameters that are used to secretly convey a large amount of data about those who are searching. But nobody seems to know what psy-ab and gs_lcp do. gs_lcp is fairly new and contains a HUGE alphanumeric string that appears to be base-64, but attempts to decode these strings have been unfruitful.

I have a bad feeling about this though, and feel like this is something we should NOT ignore. I think it's important we start paying more attention about how much personal data we are sharing without even knowing it.
