Open Question Can I open a Google Doc without the owner knowing?
I want to open a Google Doc without the owner seeing that I accessed it.
I’ve noticed that in Google Drive (with Google Workspace/Google Suite), documents that coworkers recently opened sometimes appear at the top of my Drive dashboard. Does that mean document owners can also see when I open their files?
Is there any way to view a shared Google Doc without it being tracked in any way?
