HENDERSON, Nev. — A 49ers-Raiders affair with passes instead of punches? Such was the case Thursday as these former Bay Area neighbors squared off in the first of two joint practices before Sunday’s preseason opener.“There’s no bad blood or anything,” 49ers linebacker Fred Warner said. “It’s all about ball.”It also was mostly about Jimmy Garoppolo wearing No. 10 in a different uniform, and, in the crispest drill of the 90-minute session, producing a touchdown drive, then both he and the 49ers exchanging kind words about his previous 5 1/2-year tenure in the red and gold.Here are the top takeaways from before and after practice at the Raiders’ headquarters since 2020 upon leaving Oakland:INJURY WATCHTight end George Kittle (thigh) and linebacker Dre Greenlaw (hamstring) showed up on the injury report, but the biggest blow sure to linger into the season was to return specialist Ray-Ray McCloud, who sustained a fractured left wrist ...

A federal court judge this week shot down Google’s attempt to scuttle a multi-billion-dollar class-action lawsuit accusing it of making an Orwellian grab of “potentially embarrassing” data from users’ “Incognito mode” and other private browsing.The three Californians and two others suing Google on behalf of themselves and tens of millions of other internet users claim Google captured the data despite promising it would not.Google, in its bid to get the case thrown out, argued in a March court filing that it “never made any such promise.”In her order in U.S. District Court in Oakland, Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers said she agreed with the plaintiffs who filed the lawsuit in 2020 that anyone using Incognito mode in Google’s Chrome browser could reasonably deduce from the mode’s opening “splash” screen that their data would not be accessible by Google. She also noted that Google’s “Search & Browse Pr...
