Google is also expanding Assistant's privacy-minded Guest Mode to nine new languages in the months ahead, and has promised to ramp up safeguards for politicians ahead of the US midterm elections. The reduced volume of account breaches isn't a shock — requiring more effort to crack an account is bound to deter some would-be intruders.
